Top SchoolRobin Gustafsson is a product and engineering leader with 14 years of experience building developer-focused SaaS and open-source tools, currently serving as VP of Product Management at Grafana Labs. He combines hands-on engineering roots—contributing backend code to the popular k6 load-testing project—with strategic product leadership he honed as CTO and later CEO of Load Impact.

His background in distributed systems and cloud computing (MSc KTH) informs pragmatic decisions about scalability and developer experience.
