A small studio with a long, unusual runway.
Sydebarn is a one-person software studio in Perth, Western Australia, run by a systems builder who's spent two decades quietly making businesses run better.
The path here wasn't a straight line. Years in retail and business development across South-East Asia, a stint recruiting students across borders, then a deep turn into systems, safety and software. Somewhere along the way, “the person who fixes the spreadsheet” quietly became “the person who builds the platform.”
Today that means building the kind of custom software big companies pay whole teams for, end to end and solo. Recent work ranges from small automations that quietly save a team hours a week, up to an entire operations platform that a whole business now runs on.
Fluent in a handful of languages and every dialect of “make it just work”, happiest turning a painful manual process into something that quietly runs itself. Based in Perth; works with small businesses anywhere.
