Geometric or conceptual way to understand supersymmetry algebra

Is there any geometric or more direct conceptual way to understand a supersymmetry algebra, rather than starting from a Lagrangian including boson and fermion fields, deriving all the expressions ensuring the supersymmetry invariance and then writing down the supersymmetry algebra? For a geometric or algebraic way, I mean to (at least partially) derive the supersymmetry algebra from pure geometry (spinors, spin group, etc.).
