Portrait of Robin Lebhar

Robin Lebhar

Software engineer — full-stack systems, applied AI, and teams that ship.

Eleven years building end-to-end products — from architecture and APIs to the interfaces people use. Lately that includes applied AI that earns its place in production.

About

Software engineer and tech lead specialized in high-stakes web products and applied AI. Currently leading Klemo, Garance’s AI-powered investment app, inside a regulated frame (ORIAS, AMF, ACPR). Comfortable owning everything from architecture to delivery.

I teach React, TypeScript, and modern full-stack in engineering schools and inside companies — and I’m a best-selling Udemy instructor whose courses ship via Udemy Business at Nike, Vimeo, Fender, and Volkswagen.

Best-seller Udemy — React & TypeScript. Same craft I teach in schools and corporate programs.

Teaching

Teaching in engineering schools and companies — and a Udemy catalog that scaled.

Same craft across classrooms, corporate workshops, and online courses: React, TypeScript, and modern full-stack for people who ship.

Hermès · Claude Code · Ollama

AI systems

Harnesses, automation, and models I can inspect in production.

I design agentic architectures with a custom harness (Hermès), automate heavily with Claude Code + Hermès, and run local models via Ollama / LM Studio. Deep practice includes rebuilding a GPT-style LLM from scratch — tokenizer, multi-head attention, Transformer, training loop.

Hermès harness

Custom agent runtime for multi-step work: tools, checkpoints, and automation that stays operable.

Claude Code

Daily operator loop — large refactors, specs-to-code, and repo-wide changes with human oversight.

Local & applied AI

Ollama, LM Studio, and production LLM features under real constraints (finance, ops, regulated products).

Reel

Short demos and builds — a growing reel of things I’ve shipped.
