Robert Pupel, CEO & Co-Founder

What Robert works on

Robert runs devs group day to day and is the first voice a prospective client hears: first conversations, assessments and proposals all go through him, as does project leadership on the client side. Book a slot through the website and you land directly in his calendar — no gatekeeper, no queue. He stays the point of contact after a project starts, too, keeping budget, dates and expectations in view.

His technical focus is AI-assisted engineering and agent systems: how teams use coding agents without multiplying their technical debt, how LLM integrations are built to comply with the revised Swiss Data Protection Act, and where sovereign inference on Swiss infrastructure actually makes sense. Together with Codify AG he is also driving AIgent, an AI agent platform for Swiss companies.

What he holds every engagement to is an honest assessment before the first paid day. If buying is smarter than building, or a single VM better than a cluster, he says so in the first conversation rather than in the closing report. That attitude runs through all of devs group: a smaller, honest mandate that lasts years beats a large one regretted after the first milestone. Most devs group client relationships run over several years accordingly, from the Federal Office of Information Technology to the startups in the portfolio. The simplest way to find out how that feels is to book a first conversation directly through the calendar on the contact page: fifteen minutes, no preparation, no obligation.
