Our mission is to help developers work together to create better API ecosystems.
At Bump, we are fixing an issue that we have met for years. It's not a technical issue. It's a human one: in a decentralized world, people synchronization is hard. We want to help teams, by providing the API tools they need. The tools we all need.
Meet the team
We are a small team with big ambitions.
Sébastien Charrier
CEO
Sébastien is 40 years old. He has been a developer for 20 years and worked in multiple companies. He had the idea
behind Bump during his last job, when fully rewriting the payment API at Capitaine Train.
He is also known to be a dad, a public speaker and a viola player.
Anthony Lio
Head of productAnthony has evolved as a product devsigner for several startups before. You read him right, he has never been able to decide between the product, development or design, bringing this multi-faceted service to its clients. It is through one of them that he met Sébastien.
Paul Monseu - de Bodinat
Backend engineer
Paul is a 37 year old engineer and web developer, who went through many experiences, from industrial marketing to wind turbine startup, from mathematics professor to civil engineering…
Besides Bump, he's learning how to be a dad 👨👩👧 and building his house 🏡 at the same time.
Thimy Kieu
Front-End EngineerAs a developer who loves design, it seemed natural for Thimy to choose front-end development. She used to work with Sébastien and Paul B. at Capitaine Train, and Bump desire for diversity definitely encouraged her to join the company. On her free time she draws 🎨, bakes cookies 🍪 and cuddles her dog, Juna. 🐕.
Paul Bonaud
Backend & Infrastructure engineer
Paulr is a software developer with lots of interests in infrastructure related systems. He really appreciates to improve development workflows by empowering automation & continuous delivery. He also loves open source, open contributions and loves to flatten learning curves by focusing on simplicity.
AFK? He is a rock climber and cyclist.
Jay Cormier
Developer Experience EngineerJay has been working in Support for more than a decade. From Apple to Capitaine Train (where he met and worked with Sébastien, Paul, and Thimy) or Front, he then joined Le Wagon’s coding Bootcamp. Jay has two main hobbies: helping people and playing games. When he’s not rolling dice, you can find him online, probably playing… a healer.
Christophe Dujarric
Head of Product MarketingChris has been working on designing and bringing solutions to life since more than 15 years (a.k.a. "product management"). Hopefully those solutions (lately Blackfire.io) solved actual user problems. Accidentally most leveraged software 👍.
When you don't find him chatting with a customer, there's a chance he's making soap, brewing beer, practicing self-defense, growing tomatoes or gravel cycling.
Sarah Khalil
Product ManagerThinking problem first, Sarah is product manager at Bump. She loves to get to know our customers, understand their needs to be able build, with the team, the best product users love. She began her carreer as developer with PHP (Symfony), she then evolved in the product world as she needed to be closer to the users.
With her best friend Popit (an English Cocker Spaniel), she walks in forests to breath pure air while listening to the Harry Potter soundtracks.
Valériane Venance
Principal Developer AdvocateValériane has been in the Developer Relations field for a few years now after learning how to code at 42 and Le Wagon. From startups to big companies, she is driven by a single obsession: serve and represent developers in the best possible manner. When she is not giving a conference or writing an article, you can be sure she is always learning something new dev related. If you recognize her at a conference please come say hi, by she’d be thrilled.
Florent BRAURE
Lead EngineerFlorent spent the last 15 years in Aeronautic Software Development, making sure that the Entertainment Systems work (nobody would survive a 13 hours flight without watching again any season of Friends in Finnish subtitled).
After all these years, he takes any opportunity after the job's done to dive into sports, board game nights and more importantly, value time with his children.
He now has a more ambitious goal: making the Bump.sh Dev team flight, as smooth and comfortable as possible... Coffee? Tea? Some fruit juice, maybe?
Camille REGNAULT
Backend EngineerCamille is a software developer who loves to learn new things. She is involved in Women on Rails community and co-writes the Women on Rails Newsletter. You can find her at Rails Meetups or posting Gifs on Twitter.
Her favorite yoga poses to see the world upsidedown are the the wheel, the scorpio and savasana.
