Software & hardware consultancy
Build across the stack. Straighten the system.
Sandersonian Development is an independent practice for cloud and full-stack software, firmware, architecture, hardware prototypes, and AI. We take on the work that spans disciplines — and the work that is stuck.
01 — Services
One practice, the whole stack.
Software and hardware fail at the seams. We work those seams — between board and cloud, between the architecture and the org chart, between a prototype and a product.
- 01
AWS cloud development
Production platforms on AWS — compute, data, networking, IAM, and the pipelines that keep them honest.
- 02
Full-stack software
Web applications, APIs, and the interfaces people actually use. Designed as one system, not a pile of parts.
- 03
Firmware
Embedded software that talks to hardware reliably — boot, drivers, protocols, and the path up to the cloud.
- 04
Systems architecture
Map how the business works, then design the technical shape to match. Architecture for the system and for the business around it.
- 05
Codebase refactoring
We reshape codebases that have outgrown their original structure, without freezing the work that pays the bills.
- 06
Startup consulting
Senior counsel for early teams: what to build, what to skip, and how to keep the architecture from boxing you in.
- 07
Hardware prototypes
Bring an idea onto a development board — sensors, comms, power, and a credible path to the next revision.
- 08
AI implementation
Put models into existing products and operations with clear boundaries, evaluation, and ownership.
- 09
AI development
Custom pipelines, retrieval, agents, and the software around them — built for production, not a demo day.
02 — Approach
Architecture first, then the work.
We do not start from a stack preference or a staffed bench. We start from the system you have, the constraints you cannot ignore, and the shape the next version has to take.
- 01
Discover
Map the system as it actually is — codebase, hardware, constraints, and how the organization makes decisions.
- 02
Architect
Design the target shape. Technical architecture and business architecture together, so the build has a clear place to land.
- 03
Build
Ship in production-grade increments. Cloud, firmware, boards, or models — same standard, same accountability.
- 04
Transfer
Leave documentation, ownership, and a team that can run it. The engagement ends; the system should not need us forever.
03 — Practice
An independent consultancy, built around the seams.
Sandersonian Development is a consulting company for software and hardware services. We build on AWS, ship full-stack products and firmware, design hardware prototypes on development boards, and put AI into real systems — not slide decks.
We also do the unglamorous work that determines whether any of that survives: architecture for systems and businesses, refactoring codebases that grew faster than their structure, and counsel for startups choosing what to build next.
Independent, senior, and comfortable in an AWS console, a git history, a schematic review, and a founder conversation. Engaged as a partner, not a ticket queue.
Who this is for
Founders
You need a senior partner, not a junior bench. Product, architecture, and the first systems that have to last.
Product teams
The codebase or platform has outgrown its original design. Shipping continues; the structure has to catch up.
Hardware + software
The work does not sit neatly in one org. Boards, firmware, cloud, and the product in between have to agree.
AI in production
The demo worked. Now it needs evaluation, boundaries, and a place in the actual system.
