Team
We are a small team of engineers out of New York and San Francisco. After years working in AI, we became passionate about making it simple for every developer to work with data infrastructure. We value strong technical skills, frugality, deep customer empathy and adventurous offsites.
Ciro, Jacopo and Mattia are serial entrepreneurs who went from early stage to acquisition to IPO in less than 5 years, and our founding team comes from Docker, Amazon and top academic institutions.
bauplaners have a few Ph.D.s, 40+ research papers (including Nature, ICML, KDD, VLDB, SIGMOD), thousands of citations and several popular open source contributions, with millions of downloads and >10k GitHub stars.

What does Bauplan mean?
Bauplan is a term from evolutionary biology and means ground or structural plan. It is a concept from evolutionary biology used to identify common sets of morphological features in organism like as symmetry, layers, segmentation, nerve, limb configuration. Different phyla of animals can be grouped based on their bauplan. For instance, the vertebrates share the same Bauplan, while invertebrates have many Baupläne. We wanted a name that could convey our passion for structural optimization of complex systems. What makes a bauplan successful in history of evolution? How many ways are there to optimize the structure of an organism against his environment?
