Enzo switched careers from e-commerce to become a PHP/Symfony developer in 2022, and brought his business sense along with him. That's his greatest strength: a genuine appetite for the business side, and a knack for turning real-world needs into sound technical solutions.
Drawn to software architecture and API design, he contributes to Symfony and API Platform in his spare time.
A regular at AFUP events and SymfonyCon, he kept crossing paths with the baksla.sh crew long before joining it. Now he gets to learn every day from the people who build the tools he relies on, and to keep growing alongside them.
Away from the keyboard, he's either riding his motorcycle or out for a run. Florian finally has someone to ride with 🏍️

Thanks to Mathias's mentorship, Florian delivered his first talk at AFUP Day Lyon in 2023. Since then, he has become an active member of AFUP Lyon, where he organizes events and helps newcomers discover the PHP ecosystem and its community.
When he's not coding, Florian loves hitting the road on his motorcycle to discover new places and landscapes.
A full-stack developer since 2009, Hugo likes to learn a lot of new things, so he's super versatile. Since then, he has specialized in web development, mainly with PHP and JavaScript, but also in back-end and browser-side performance optimization.

Valmont is a PHP/Symfony developer who enjoys jumping into big, messy projects when things are on fire, whether it's to ship a feature, untangle legacy code, or help a migration finally move forward.
After 10 years in sales, he switched to web development and kept a practical, people-first approach to solving problems.
He focuses mostly on backend development, clean architecture, and code that future developers won’t curse too loudly.
He also gives talks (when the stars align and he's in the right mood), contributes to open source, and keeps digging into design patterns, software architecture, and the Symfony ecosystem.
A big fan of TCGs, you'll often spot him at conferences, where instead of joining the usual after-work drinks, he'll be training with his friend Jérémy—though, of course, he's always up for both! He's also a craft beer enthusiast, but beware: if you bring up the subject, the conversation could get as intense as a political debate.
