Work

Real systems. Real businesses. Still running.

A short tour of what we’ve shipped for UK SMBs: the automation, the database modernisation, the website that wasn’t going to migrate itself. Every quote here is from the people we built it with.

Database modernisation

From crash-prone legacy system to reliable cloud platform.

Inidam · Non-destructive testing · Database modernisation

  • Recovery required IT calls
  • Data scattered in spreadsheets
  • Only accessible from one location
  • Single shared-password security

  • Cloud-hosted React/Node.js app
  • Role-based access with 2FA
  • Consolidated data including holidays
  • 5-minute remote restore capability

MultiConcurrent access

What we delivered

  • Cloud database platformReact/Node.js webapp with PostgreSQL backend
  • Security overhaulRole-based access replacing shared credentials, with 2FA
  • Data consolidationScattered spreadsheets unified into a single source of truth

The solution exceeded every expectation. It’s incredibly well thought out and the attention to detail has been outstanding. We couldn’t be happier with the results.

Legacy inspection software, rebuilt from the ground up.

Lizard NDE · Electromagnetic inspection technology · 25+ team

A world leader in electromagnetic non-destructive testing, running on inspection software written in Borland C++ that couldn’t keep pace with what their clients needed. We rewrote their core LISS inspection software from scratch in Python: faster, maintainable, and ready for the features their clients have been requesting for years. We’re also building LISS Premium, a new tier with advanced capabilities. Alongside the software, we redesigned their entire web presence from a static 2014-era site to a modern Next.js platform. Luke is embedded two days a week on ongoing development.
