Marco Sütterlin is a Senior Industrialization Software Engineer based in Zurich with seven years of hands-on experience in robotics and human-computer interaction, currently advancing productization at ANYbotics. He blends a strong mechanical engineering foundation from ETH Zürich with practical robotics software skills—refactoring and modernizing ROS integrations like the grid_map RViz plugin to maintain cross-version compatibility. Comfortable across embedded electronics, system integration and backend robotics code, he moves seamlessly between PCB-level work and higher-level mapping and tf handling. Known as easygoing but hardworking, he’s as likely to be found refining a costmap compatibility issue as snowboarding or shooting hoops in his spare time.
