Core competencies
Custom software development
Full-lifecycle web and mobile delivery: Next.js and TypeScript for web applications, native SwiftUI for iOS, native Kotlin for Android, and React Native where a shared codebase fits. Every engagement ships with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and production observability.
Cybersecurity services
Vulnerability assessment and penetration testing for applications and infrastructure, and fractional CISO advisory for growing teams, delivered through the SentryProbe platform, plus clear reporting for auditors and leadership.
AI and automation engineering
RAG pipelines and LLM integrations built on AWS Bedrock and Anthropic Claude, plus agent-based software delivery pipelines with Pipemason, with run-cost budgets tracked on every workflow.
Cloud platform engineering
Multi-cloud platform engineering across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud: event-driven architectures, microservice deployments, infrastructure as code for every environment, and IoT and telemetry platforms.
Differentiators
- This is principal-led delivery: the owner architects and delivers every engagement personally, backed by 20+ years shipping software and about 10 years leading engineering teams.
- Products, not just services: CrashBytes builds and operates Pipemason, a software delivery pipeline SaaS, and SentryProbe, a security testing SaaS.
- Multi-cloud production experience across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, so agencies are not locked into a single vendor's ecosystem.
- SBA-certified service-disabled veteran-owned (SDVOSB) and veteran-owned (VOSB): eligible for SDVOSB and VOSB set-aside and sole-source awards, plus an Ohio VFBE bid preference pending state certification.
