We have over 26 years of experience in the industry and are looking to expand our team in order to better support our growing client base.
We offer a full spectrum of software development and devops services. Typically we get involved when clients have problems that cannot be solved with existing resources - identifying performance issues or complex bugs in website infrastructure is a speciality.
We often work with other software or design agencies as an enhancement to their existing team. Providing advice and support where required. This work can be anything from coding to managing cloud services to building complex deployment pipelines.
Our regular work also includes long term development projects, such as Customer Relationship Management systems (CRM) or Web App development.
Core company values include: diligence, respect, curiosity and ethical conduct.
We pride ourselves on meeting and exceeding the expectations of our clients, while also being courteous and approachable to in-house development, project management or design teams. This makes LifeDev a pleasant company to work with for our clients, and a happy working environment for our employees.
The technologies, services and frameworks in use by Life Dev are always evolving, and we never shy away from a potential project due to an unfamiliar language or framework alone.
However some of the current mainstays are listed below:
● PHP (Laravel, Yii2, WordPress, etc)
● HTML & CSS (SASS)
● JavaScript (some React DOM, Node.js - too many frameworks to list)
● Databases (MySQL, Firebase, Redis etc)
● Containerisation (Docker, DDEV, etc)
● Website optimisation (speed, security, responsiveness, and accessibility)
● Generative AI automations (APIs, services etc)
● Debugging and testing of any system.
● Integration and Automation - using 3rd party APIs and bespoke APIs (Microsoft, Google, Facebook, LinkedIn etc).
● Data processing, complex imports, and export routines.
● Cloud platform management (AWS & Digital Ocean, some Azure)
● Scalability, redundancy, and security
Personal projects are actively encouraged at Life Dev. While time is not provided within working hours for these projects, the company will support any personal project that is beneficial to the personal professional development of the employee - personal web projects, apis, building games etc are all good examples of this.
