Christophe Serafin is a seasoned engineering leader with 11+ years building distributed systems, security tooling, and developer-facing platforms across startups and enterprise teams. Currently Head of Engineering at Acuvity and co-founder of TeamOut, he blends hands-on backend and UI experience (Go, Python, Java, JS, Android) with proven people leadership from director and head-of-development roles. He has particular strength in architecting microservices, identity-based security, and productionizing REST APIs and SDKs while maintaining strong QA practices (unit/integration testing, CI). Christophe’s background spans building complex multi-service products at Aporeto and Palo Alto Networks, leading small agile teams, and shipping tools that automate SDK and test generation—an indicator of his focus on developer productivity. Based in Mountain View, he combines technical breadth with recruiting and culture-building chops, and uniquely bridges embedded/mobile roots with cloud-native security engineering.
