Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolChristopher Robert is a founder-CEO with 10 years of experience building technology that strengthens research and development practice. He launched Dobility and SurveyCTO to improve the quality and security of mobile and web data collection, then steered R&D into machine-learning quality monitoring and ultimately into Higher Bar AI, a public benefit corporation applying LLMs to scale research best practices. His career blends hands-on product and technical leadership (Founder, CTO, Head of Product) with academic rigor as a former Harvard Kennedy School research fellow and PhD-trained public policy scholar. Based in Henniker, NH, he focuses on social entrepreneurship, ICT4D, and applied development economics, and is adept at converting research-grade ideas into production tools that serve policymakers and practitioners. Notably, he has repeatedly shifted company missions—from SurveyCTO’s data-security focus to ML-driven quality control and now to AI-infused research workflows—demonstrating a pattern of evolving tech for public impact.
