Austen Collins Made the Cloud Feel Like a Product
He came to infrastructure through motion graphics, named a framework after a shark movie, and spent a decade turning cloud complexity into a developer experience. Now Austen Collins is applying the same instinct to personal AI tools.
Serverless Inc.
Serverless Inc. is a San Francisco software company that builds the Serverless Framework, one of the most widely used open-source tools for deploying applications to AWS Lambda and other cloud functions. Founded in 2015 by Austen Collins, it turned a solo open-source project called JAWS into a de facto standard for infrastructure-as-code in the function-as-a-service era, then layered commercial products - a dashboard, observability, and a subscription license - on top for larger teams.
Tim Wagner
Tim Wagner is the co-founder and CEO of Vendia, and the inventor of AWS Lambda - the service that launched the global serverless computing movement. With a PhD from UC Berkeley and stints at AWS (as GM of Lambda, API Gateway, and Serverless App Repository) and Coinbase (as VP Engineering), Wagner brings a rare double expertise in serverless infrastructure and blockchain. At Vendia, he has combined both disciplines to build a platform that enables secure, real-time data sharing across companies, clouds, and ecosystems - positioning it as the operating layer for the AI data era.
