Robin Newhouse is a senior software engineer in San Francisco with 13 years of experience building agentic AI systems and production-grade backend infrastructure. A particle physicist-turned-engineer, he brought petabyte-scale data processing, ML-driven track reconstruction, and open-source leadership from CERN into cloud and applied-AI roles at AWS and startups. He has driven large-scale contributions to MariaDB at AWS RDS, automated critical CI/tooling, and prototyped multi-agent frameworks that translate natural language into structured-data queries for real estate. At Cline he now focuses on “code that writes your code,” blending practical systems engineering with research-grade ML methods. Known for mentoring and teaching across academia and industry, he combines rigorous experimentation with pragmatism—often translating complex physics workflows into reliable, production-ready software.
