Software consultancy · United Kingdom

A small team that ships software you can maintain.

We work with UK businesses and early-stage teams who need senior engineering without the overhead of hiring for it. Python, web, and cloud. Built simply, documented properly, handed over cleanly.

Three things we're genuinely good at

Services
/ consultancy

Software consultancy

A second pair of eyes on architecture, hiring, or a project that has stalled. We'll tell you what we'd actually do, including when the answer is to build less.

  • architecture review
  • technical due diligence
  • AI integration
/ product

Web development

Internal tools, customer portals, APIs and the sites in front of them. Fast, accessible, and boring in the ways software should be boring.

  • web apps
  • APIs & integrations
  • internal tooling
/ infrastructure

Cloud engineering

AWS and Azure set up the way any team can afford to run it. Infrastructure as code, sensible pipelines, and a bill you understand.

  • AWS & Azure
  • CI/CD
  • cost review

About

We're a small team, and that's the point.

Waghorn Technology is a UK software consultancy made up of experienced developers who'd rather do a few projects properly than many at once. Most of our work comes from people we've worked with before.

We like problems where the technology is in service of something concrete: a process that's eating someone's week, a system that's grown past what it was designed for, a product that needs to exist before the next funding conversation.

If that sounds like your situation, we're easy to talk to and quick to tell you if we're not the right fit.

How we work
01 - Talk
A call, no charge. You describe the problem, we say whether we can help.
02 - Scope
A short written proposal: what we'll build, how long, what it costs.
03 - Build
Weekly demos in your repo. You see progress, not status reports.
04 - Hand over
Documentation, a walkthrough, and support for as long as you need it.
