Company overview

An independent IT firm built around long-horizon engineering.

HERTER operates as a focused engineering studio for organizations that treat software as critical infrastructure. We combine product engineering, platform reliability, and security architecture into one accountable team — so the systems we build today still serve our clients in five years.

Core IT expertise

Multidisciplinary engineering, under one roof.

Software Engineering

Polyglot teams across TypeScript, Go, Python, .NET and JVM languages — shipping product-grade systems.

Platform & DevOps

Kubernetes, Terraform, GitOps and observability pipelines tuned for uptime and developer velocity.

Security Architecture

Threat modeling, zero-trust patterns, SOC tooling and continuous compliance baselines.

Data Engineering

Lakehouse, streaming and warehouse architectures that turn operational data into product features.

Integration

API gateways, event meshes and ETL pipelines that connect legacy and modern systems.

Reliability

SRE practices, incident response, and capacity planning for systems that cannot fail.

Software development workspace
Technology solutions

Architected for the real shape of your business.

We don't ship reference architectures. Every engagement starts with the operational and regulatory constraints our clients actually live with — then we design the smallest system that satisfies them.

  • Domain-driven service decomposition
  • Multi-region resilience patterns
  • Event-driven and asynchronous workflows
  • Composable internal platforms
Software development approach

Small, accountable teams. Continuous delivery. Honest engineering.

Embedded teams

Senior engineers operating inside your sprints.

Test-first culture

Coverage we trust, contracts we publish.

Trunk-based flow

Feature flags over long-lived branches.

Definition of done

Observability, runbooks, and docs — always.

Cloud & infrastructure

Infrastructure that scales without theatrics.

AWS, Azure, GCP and hybrid topologies — designed as code, observed end-to-end, and operated against measurable SLOs. We bring landing zones, secure baselines and FinOps discipline from day one.

Cybersecurity

Security as an engineering discipline, not a checklist.

Identity, secrets, supply chain, runtime and data — covered by a program tuned to your threat model. We pair architecture work with hands-on hardening and incident readiness.
