Summary

What We Do We build custom software solutions that solve real operational challenges for businesses—from restaurants and cafés to retail and service providers. Our projects range from cost management applications and inventory systems to customer-facing websites and booking platforms. Every project is different, giving our developers exposure to diverse industries and technical challenges.

Why Work For Us You'll work on projects from conception to deployment with genuine ownership and impact. Our small team means your code shapes actual business outcomes, not lost in enterprise bloat. We offer competitive pay, flexible working arrangements, and the chance to build your portfolio with real-world applications that matter.

Our Culture We're small, direct, and results-focused. No daily standups you don't need, no endless meetings, no corporate theatre. We trust you to manage your time and deliver quality work—whether that's from the office, home, or a café. Work-life balance isn't a buzzword here; it's how we operate.

Our Engineering Processes We prioritize clean, maintainable code over rigid methodologies. Code reviews happen, testing matters, documentation exists—but we adapt processes to project needs rather than following frameworks religiously. You'll have input on tech stack choices and architectural decisions. Git, modern frameworks, cloud deployment—the fundamentals done right.
