Sylvain Bougerel is a seasoned software leader and Co-Founder & CTO with roughly two decades in engineering and 18 years of hands-on experience building and scaling mission-critical systems. He has led teams up to 30 engineers and driven $10M+ projects and 1M+ MAU products, combining technical leadership with strong operational rigor—advocating automation, trunk-based development, CI/CD and infrastructure as code. At Grab he standardized SCM and deployment tooling, led SOX compliance efforts, and served on the incident commander rotation, while earlier roles at Thales saw him deliver large-scale safety-and-surveillance systems and materially improve project margins. He hires for intellectual rigor and ownership, mentors engineers, and prefers tools over process to boost efficiency. Based in Singapore and long committed to environmental causes (a longtime vegetarian), he brings a pragmatic, sustainability-minded perspective to engineering leadership and startup building.
