Team resume

We've been here since 1995, designing and rolling out custom enterprise and web-based solutions across the world

Our in-depth experience across many languages and technologies allows us to focus on customer happiness first and foremost. To that end, our core services include:

• PHP: Enterprise-level, including every mainstream framework.
• Ruby: Enterprise-level, including one SaaS project with 20+ developers that ran multiple years.
• Java: Enterprise-level, including financial services and artificial intelligence solutions.
• Python: Enterprise-level, including machine learning, and C++ optimized integration.
• C++: Enterprise-level, including blockchain, Python module optimization, and embedded. One of our most experienced C++ team members represented Intel’s team to review IEEE’s code for telecom standards and related code safety and integrity for smartphones.
• C#/.NET and ASP.NET: Enterprise-level, an example being software to track football players in real time and another for an Airbnb competitor.
• JavaScript: Enterprise-level, including application of every mainstream framework. Our single-page applications (SPAs) are used by some of the largest retailers in the world.
• Blockchain: Bitcoin protocol adaptation, transaction integration, and deployment. Please learn more on our blockchain development page.
• SQL and databases: Extensively since 1997, including every mainstream OSS database and most enterprise databases.
• NoSQL: We’ve been using this since near when the term became mainstream.
• Mobile: Hybrid, iOS, and Android, since near they’ve been mainstream.
• HTML and CSS: Since they were created.
• Apache and Linux: Extensively since 2001.
• NGINX: Enterprise-level, since near it’s been mainstream.
• DevOps: CI/CD, IaC, cloud management, continuous logging / monitoring / security, service orchestration, and more. Please learn more on our DevOps page.
• Amazon Web Services and other cloud services: Since 2006.

We serve no specific verticals or market segments, and, as a result, we have partnered with clients in most markets and experienced most business models. Here are some example organizational types or sectors we have served: design, ventures and new products, auctions, communications, marketing, sales, logistics, energy, professional societies, e-communities, research, agriculture, HR, housing, dealerships, telecommunications, entertainment, health care (Rx, EMR, Revenue Cycle, +), insurance, gaming, professional services, publishing, manufacturing, engineering, retail, e-commerce (B2C, B2B), education (K-12, adult-focused (GED for example), and universities), social endeavors and non-profit offerings, and government-driven initiatives.

Given our focus, we have developed a very particular set of skills, and we consequently know all mainstream frameworks and implementations expertly. We’ve applied them for individual entrepreneurs all the way up to one member of the Fortune 10.

CORE SERVICES

Custom Software Development:

• We build new software in addition to extending legacy systems, from full projects serving millions to an important feature.
• Much of our development is done on frameworks, both clean and full-featured ones, to save money and time. These have changed a lot over the last two decades, and they will in the future. We support what the market wants; if it is mainstream, we’ve put it to work for our customers.

Supporting and Maintaining Current Software Assets:

• Ensuring that current investments pay dividends is a large part of what we do.
• Troubleshooting is something we enjoy. Technical support can be a distraction in terms of doing what needs done for the next iteration. Some software companies and departments hire us to handle those distractions.

Data and Databases:

• Systems need to talk to other systems, and given what people want to accomplish online, such integration is a commonality today. We work with APIs, write them, and talk with ones that are intentionally obfuscated.
• Whether it’s SQL or NoSQL, we know it and can apply it. This includes MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, CouchDB, Mongo, and anything used in the enterprise.
• Since 1995, we’ve built out a large number of report generators and API handlers. We can take care of anything in those areas well for you so your system can scale and your team gets the data they want.

Architecture:

• Software development requires planning for successful execution. Along with the development services provided, we also assist in ensuring that what we’re building will meet the needs of the customer for the long-term.
• This service includes creating project assets such as low-fidelity wireframes, user stories, entity relation diagrams (ERDs), data dictionaries, work flow and data flow diagrams, system boundary definitions, interface contracts, unified modeling language (UML) diagrams, use cases, BDD specs, and API definition and documentation.
• Up and Running – Discovery Process Methods includes some methods we use for discovery.

Testing:

• It’s quite common that we are presented with systems that do not have proper testing best practices implemented. We are often hired to implement test and quality best practices so that it’s cheaper to scale and maintain a system. We’ve even created a custom testing harness that we provide to our clients at no cost.
• We’ve had clients recoup the cost of refactoring their code in a few months because of the time it saved their developers. Besides the cost savings, they can launch code faster and more reliably for their end customers.

Systems and Security:

• In support of software development, we handle systems and security aspects regularly. Quality in these areas is essential for a software investment to yield maximum returns. We’ve built out HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, and we’ve been asked to help companies scale and build in systems redundancy. What helps us contribute in this area is that we used to run a systems company and we were an early adopter of AWS.
• DevOps: CI/CD, IaC, cloud management, continuous logging / monitoring / security, service orchestration, and more. Please learn more on our DevOps page.
• On a daily basis, we work with financial, health, insurance, and confidential personal and business information. We regularly work with classified information, trade secrets, and sensitive data related to sensitive situations. We know how to protect data internally and externally, and we can do so to the degree that you’d like.
