Yonas Beshawred is Co-Founder and CEO of StarSling, an AI-native DevOps platform building self-driving CI for GitHub Actions, backed by Y Combinator's Spring 2025 batch.

Yonas studied Information Systems at the University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business and earned an M.S. in Human-Computer Interaction from the University of Maryland College Park, before moving to Silicon Valley to pursue entrepreneurship.

A serial founder with a proven exit, Yonas previously built and led StackShare, a developer community of over 1.5M developers with an enterprise SaaS offering approaching $1M ARR, which was acquired by FOSSA in 2024.

At StarSling, Yonas is leading the company's $3M seed raise backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, with angel participation from Sentry co-founder David Cramer, former GitHub engineer Zach Holman, and engineering leaders from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta.

StarSling's AI-native runners and agents deliver customers up to 6x faster builds and 33% lower CI costs, with early customers like Mastra and Better Auth already seeing transformative results.
