Philosophy

Our philosophy is simple — build the smallest thing that can be proven to work.

  • What the system has to do, stated as something checkable
  • The evidence that says it does it
  • What it costs to run, measured rather than assumed
  • What happens when it fails, decided before it does
  • Who maintains it after we leave

That is a standard we hold ourselves to first. This site has no build step, no third-party origin and no analytics of any kind, and a release is not finished until an automated verification gate says the deployed bytes are the ones we built.

Services

Azure Platform Delivery

Client
Savers
Role
Cloud Engineering & DevOps

Infrastructure defined in Bicep, applications running as Azure Functions and Container Apps, and a multi-stage Azure DevOps pipeline that builds an artifact once and promotes that same artifact through development, UAT and production.

Every promotion is gated on automated verification — availability, TLS, security headers, cache policy, and a byte-level comparison of what was deployed against what was built. End-to-end coverage runs against real browsers with Playwright.

No screenshot: the platform is internal and has no public surface to capture.
The Savers enterprise management console: a row of task icons above a run-time parameter form.

Enterprise Management

Client
Savers
Role
System Administration

Created a web application which allows administrators to initiate predefined functions, supply parameters at run time, and receive an email when the process finishes.
The FFT relationships interface: a family member record with conditionally displayed clinical sections.

Relationships

Client
FFT
Role
Web Development

Created an interface which allows therapists to seamlessly manage clinical information about their client’s family members. Certain page areas — diagnoses, for example — are conditionally present depending on a particular team’s business requirements.

The Savers report administration screen: a list of report executions with their parameters and a re-issue action.

Reports Management

Client
Savers
Role
System Administrator

Created a custom administrative interface allowing administrators to:

  • Quickly locate problematic report executions
  • Retrieve the associated parameters in a format suitable for development with SQL Server Management Studio
  • Immediately re-issue the report request without having to re-enter any parameter information

This reduced the mean time to resolution for report support requests for the organization.
The WizKids figure gallery: search filters beside a grid of game figures with their statistics.

Figure Gallery

Client
WizKids
Role
Web Developer

Created a custom figure gallery search and viewing system. Built import utilities to process the spreadsheets created by game designers and transform the data into a relational SQL Server model.
