Jaxon Repp is a recognized authority in enterprise software design and the evolving nature of work. With over 25 years of experience architecting and developing digital systems, he has led initiatives at the intersection of user experience, operational efficiency, and AI-driven transformation. As the founder of three technology startups and a trusted advisor to Fortune 500 companies navigating Digital Transformation, Jaxon brings a uniquely pragmatic perspective to the challenges facing modern organizations.
A partially reformed developer, Jaxon understands the daily friction knowledge workers encounter- grappling with tools that often serve vendors more than users. He champions a new paradigm where intuitive interfaces, contextual automation, and human-centric design are not afterthoughts, but prerequisites for productivity. As Field CTO at Harper, he serves as the voice of the customer, advocating for solutions that enhance both user experience and business outcomes. His published work explores how to scale these solutions effectively, bridging the gap between our increasingly data-driven environments and the inherent complexity of human behavior.
It should just work.
