Robin Suter
I build software — full-stack, usually close to the data. Lately a lot of it talks to LLMs.
About
I've been writing software for 7 years, the last 4 of those at Crayon, a B2B SaaS company. I've worked across the stack there — analytics, data pipelines, public APIs, and more recently LLM-powered features. The parts I enjoy most are the ones where the data is messy or the problem doesn't have an obvious shape yet. Originally from Zurich, now in Boston.
