Hi, I'm Markus Harrer, a software consultant and trainer organizations modernize and evolve their systems through architecture evolution and AI-driven analysis. I uncover bottlenecks in code, architecture, and processes to make systems more maintainable and teams more effective.
My current focus is on agentic software modernization, exploring how AI-assisted developer tools can accelerate the understanding and transformation of complex legacy systems. I'm passionate about turning technical insight into enablement by helping teams build sustainable modernization practices and bridging the gap between engineering and management.
I contribute to the software architecture and AI communities through talks, open-source projects, and writing on software analytics, generative AI, and Wardley Maps. I'm an accredited trainer for the iSAQB Foundation Level and the Advanced Level Module IMPROVE, as well as iSAQB Foundation Level certified.
