We build software.

Who We Are

We founded Arid Software in the summer of 2020 with the belief that people and relationships matter more than code. We're based in beautiful Lincoln, Nebraska, and we work with clients (and software developers) across the United States.

We value:

  • Honesty and Transparency: If you ask us a question, you'll get a straight answer. If we say we're going to do something, we do it. Even if it's uncomfortable. We document our practices and use plain language.
  • Sensible Decision-Making: We know how to strike a balance between the needs of now and the needs of the future. We build software that meets your current needs and that can grow with your business. We use solid, proven tools and techniques to make sure that what we do lasts as long as it's needed.
  • Partnership and Collaboration: We work closely with you every step of the way to make sure you're getting what you need. We work closely with each other to make sure we're doing our best work.

We've been working together (in various capacities) since 2016, and have written a frightening amount of Elixir, Javascript, and Ruby together. All of us have been recognized for technical excellence and leadership in previous roles. We have no doubt that we can bring our strengths to bear in building technical solutions for you.

What We Do

Here's an overview of some of the services we offer.

Product Development

You've got a product you need built. We can build it for you, using the best of modern software development tools and practices. We've brought dozens of products to market successfully, and can help you do the same.

Web Applications

We use RubyElixir and Javascript (including React and React Native) to build robust and performant web applications that can grow and change with your business.

Data Security

We have experience working in very regulated environments where compliance with security practices is important. We'll help keep your data safe.

Online Payments

The world is moving to e-commerce. Our experience building payment gateways will let us help you accept online payments securely and safely, knowing you'll be fully PCI-compliant.

Application Wrangling

Your code is out of control! New feature development has slowed to a crawl. Bugs abound. We can get your codebase back under control and help your team be happier and more productive.

Product Validation

You have an idea, but you're not sure yet if you should build it, much less how. We can help you make those determinations before a single line of code is written.

How We Work

When we work together, we start by making sure we understand your needs and goals so that we can build an actual solution (rather than a near-solution) for you. Our goal is to build it right the first time, every time.

We use an agile workflow with frequent checkpoints. This allows our work to change as situations change and as our understanding changes, and means that your software can keep up with your business.

We cover every line of code we write with automated tests, and proactively monitor for issues so we can fix them before you (or your customers) ever notice.

Our biggest goal is to help you, your employees, and your customers succeed, most frequently by writing solid software. We've been pretty good at that so far, and would love to work with you.
