S11 E17: The API Sprawl Cure: Moving Beyond GraphQL Federation to Composable, Type-Safe API Gateways for the Agentic Era with Jens Neuse, Founder of WunderGraph

from Code Story | Startup Podcast for CTOs, CEOs and Technical Founders Hosted by Noah Labhart | Podcast for Technical Founders & Startups

Jens Neuse grew up in Germany, originally planning to be a carpenter. In his 2nd year as an apprentice, he was in a motorcycle wreck that thrust him into a process of surgery and healing. Eventually, he decided he wouldn't be doing carpentry, and got into sysadmin work. Once he got bored with this, he moved into startups, learned how to code, and starting digging into programming, API's and eventually - GraphQL federation. Outside of tech, he is married with 3 young kids. He loves to sit ski on the mountain - which is the coolest carbon fiber chair on a ski, where you steer with your knees and hips. After chasing building a better Apollo, Jens and his team ran into a point where their prior product and company was doomed to go under. When they accepted this fact, they started to think about what people actually wanted - and started to dig into the federation of GraphQL. This is the creation story of Wundergraph.
