Hi! My name is Antoine Boulanger, an engineering operator and former YC founder. I've built and scaled engineering teams at every stage, from founding a startup to Google scale.
About me
- I built the storage/compute infra team at Box.com, scaling it through 300x growth, and shipping several "Zero to One" $xxM products along the way.
- I led the backend team of Spanner, Google's exabyte-scale database powering products like Gmail.
- I built an engineering effectiveness startup (Okay, YC W20, funded by Sequoia and Kleiner Perkins) that helped CTOs leading teams of 50-500 unblock their engineers at scale. I sold it to Stripe, where I helped improve developer productivity for 3,000+ engineers.
- I love SF and we live in the Castro with my wife, toddler and a boisterous dog.
