Presentation: Moving Mountains: Migrating Legacy Code in Weeks Instead of Years

InfoQ32 min read

David Stein shares how to rethink large-scale architectural migrations using AI. He discusses ServiceTitan's "assembly line" pattern, explaining how decomposing legacy codebase refactoring into standardized tasks can achieve massive parallelization. He highlights the critical role of programmatically rigid validation loops to eliminate LLM hallucinations and accelerate engineering agility. By David Stein

David Stein: I'm David Stein. I am a Principal AI Engineer at ServiceTitan. I'm going to talk to you today about everyone's favorite topic in software engineering, which is migrations. Migrations, I'm assuming most of you are engineers, you know what I mean by this. These are things that everyone knows that they need to happen to move a bunch of legacy code from one old system onto some new system that's going to be way better. They usually plan out to take months, quarters, years. We all have something like this, yes, migrations. I'm going to talk a bit about how at ServiceTitan we're using AI to be able to do these things in a totally different way and about what that means for us to be able to do migrations rapidly like we never could before. I'll give you some context about what ServiceTitan is since some of you may not know already. ServiceTitan is the technology platform for contractors and the trades industry. This is residential, commercial, building services, construction, electrician, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, garage door, this large set of critically important functions that everybody depends on. ServiceTitan has this end-to-end technology platform to support this industry.…
