Rose Chegwin has announced a new career move to Chainguard, marking her latest step within the technology industry as the software security company continues to expand its presence around open source and software supply chain security.
Chegwin shared the update on LinkedIn, describing the move as an exciting new chapter in her career. The announcement comes as Chainguard continues to operate in an increasingly important area of enterprise technology: securing the software and open source components used to build modern applications.
Chainguard develops hardened and production-ready builds of open source software, including container images, packages and other components used by engineering teams and AI systems. The company positions software supply chain security as a foundational part of modern application development, particularly as artificial intelligence accelerates the pace at which software is created and deployed.
The timing of Chegwin’s move is notable as software security priorities continue to evolve. Organizations are dealing with larger software ecosystems, increased reliance on open source and growing use of AI-generated code. These changes are placing greater attention on the provenance, security and reliability of software components before they reach production.

Her announcement adds to the continuing movement of technology professionals into organizations working on emerging security challenges, particularly as enterprises reassess how software is developed, secured and deployed in an increasingly AI-driven environment.
