Summary
Markus Aurich is a fractional CTO & CPO with 11 years of experience helping B2B companies find product direction and engineering structure, currently based in Vienna.

Markus has a strong track record in cloud-native architecture, AI productization, and agentic engineering, having shipped an LLM-driven business operations assessment platform and a touch‑optimized industrial control UI. He excels at bridging founder vision and technical delivery, recruiting and mentoring engineers, and implementing automated finance and infrastructure processes.
