Leadership at Independo
Daniel Harringer
Co-Founder & CTO
Daniel Harringer is Co-Founder and CTO of Independo. He works on the technical foundation behind Independo’s products: building reliable, accessible systems that help people who communicate with symbols use digital tools more independently in everyday life.
Accessible technology needs more than a good interface. It needs systems underneath that are reliable, understandable, and built for real everyday use.
Daniel Harringer, Independo GmbH
Daniel’s background is in computer engineering, automation systems, robotics, and software development. Before joining Independo, he worked in research and industry contexts, including building automation at TU Wien and software-related work at Siemens Energy.
At Independo, Daniel focuses on the technical development of the product ecosystem. His work helps turn ideas from co-design, research, and user feedback into software that can be used in real-world settings: by AAC users, families, professionals, and organizations.
He brings a careful engineering perspective to accessibility. For Daniel, good technology is not only about what is possible technically, but about whether a system is understandable, stable, maintainable, and useful for the people who rely on it. This includes building digital products that work across devices, support accessible interaction patterns, and can grow with the needs of users and organizations.
His work is guided by the idea that accessibility needs strong technical foundations. Inclusive products should not only look simple on the surface; they also need thoughtful architecture, reliable systems, and technical decisions that make participation easier in everyday life.
