- AMERICA FIRST - For clients that REQUIRE top-shelf "American" MADE CODE
WRS is a small software architecture & engineering shop, dedicated to the craft, and dedicated to excellence. WRS delivers the very best, custom quality code (tailor made solutions) in record time, all from America, and at a cost that rivals the off shore model.
WRS specializes in advanced, fully distributed solutions for cloud native stacks (serverless & container based), using modern tech stacks, platforms, and tools, all at scale.
WRS produces the best code in the least amount of time because it uses sound engineering principles; best practices, design patterns, automation, proper tooling, guard rails, and of course, discipline.
WRS uses the best project execution models for your projects (Agile/Scrum/SAFe), which surprisingly enough-- if done correctly-- always emit solid values for the following KPI's:
FACT: By leveraging 100% U.S.A. based resources, you avoid the costly & dangerous pitfalls that arise when leveraging offshore resources (see many business articles on the web for the brutal details related to offshoring & how offshoring has actually failed corporate America, as well as harmed Americans).
The Truth :
It took a while, but corporate America has finally realized that selling out one's own nation ignites a blaze that eventually consumes everything, including customers & the dollar! The American enterprise will only achieve success by adopting America First principles. Ignoring this truth will result in deep national corporate & personal devastation (for all American's), for many generations. It's time to do what is right! It's time to hire AMERICAN.

I've been using the Open AI platform since inception into the market place. I'm well versed in Tuning for Prompt Engineering, Model Fine Tuning, Assistant Building, and ML mechanics in general. I have worked on AI projects in the past; see resume.
For AWS & Azure: 100% serverless (trilateral), event-driven, REST based & Graph QL microservices that support CQRS, event sourcing, bulkheads, Apache-Kafka/Aws-Kinesis/Azure-Event-Hub, Data Lake (streaming & replay logs), JWTs, API keys, telemetry, instrumentation, failover, throttling(queues) and dashboards, all at massive scale! I build APIs with NodeJS for Aws Lambda's & Azure Functions. I also design and build with Docker, K8 and Helm for container based deployments.
I architect, design and build custom Angular SPAs & PWAs, including custom micro frontends with Angular using module federation (webpack5+) for easy module, route, and component level exports. This means app-to-app sharing between micro frontends (mfe's). I also deploy Angular apps to AWS.S3 & Azure Storage for high performance (low-latency) deployments that use a Blue/Green deployment model for ZERO DOWNTIME. This approach greatly simplifies development, configuration, deployment & rollbacks. I'm also an expert with NodeJS, the MEAN stack, Socket.IO (WebSocket's/Full Duplex & Bi-Directional)
I architect, design and build custom Flutter/Dart apps for iOS, Windows, Android, and the Web. The idea is simple, use one-code-base-for-all-occasions! I know how to migrate teams away from a many-code-base model into a one-code-base model, allowing you to lower tribal knowledge & silos, lower team thrash, consolidate your dev teams, and improve continuity, quality and process. Let's not forget the cost savings that naturally flow from a one-code-base-deployment- model.
I use GitHub, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure Pipelines, and AWS Cloud Formation for (Infrastructure as Code).
I was an Oracle & SQL Server DBA for years. I architect, design and build custom Databases using all the modern engines. I currently hold 6 certifications in the Neo4J graph db. I'm an expert with relational & non relational databases: Oracle, SQL Server, MongoDB, DynamoDB, Cosmos DB, PostgreSQL, to name a few. Note: I really really like building with Neo4J for reasons that should be obvious. :)
I'm an expert Scrum Master with decades of experience running high performance teams that deliver using Azure DevOps, Atlassian(Jira/Confluence), and of course, vanilla Kanban. I also know GitHub, and GitHub Projects for scrum management purposes.
I apply best practices, design patterns, guardrails, proper tooling, and customized Agile/Scrum methods to your projects & teams in order to save your Enterprise serious money, all while driving down thrash(chaos), team noise, and while boosting velocity, quality & efficiency. I operate with full transparency & visibility.
WRS delivers superior architectural & engineering services for clients that need high quality, customized full stack solutions which usually target the following:
We use best-practice-design-patterns on the frontend & backend during development for quality, performance & future extensibility.
Whether it be container based solutions, or, 100% serverless computing (Lambda's and Azure Functions) we leverage both methods to deliver what you need.
We also handle custom integrations, data migrations (ETL & CDC), as well as code migrations.
Did I mention, we don't like technical debt! We can't stand anti-patterns either!
We extinguish technical debt in order to promote a healthy SDLC.
Remember, you can't manage what you can't measure. So, consider allowing WRS to put your project into overdrive, and measure progress by the numbers!
Everything from lift & shift solutions, to secure, serverless trilateral event-driven microservices with bulkheads, queues, kafka, aws-kinesis, azure-event hub, and polyglot storage for fast geo-wide operational access. We know the architecture, the platforms, the tools and the components to keep your microservices healthy and operational.
Ask us about Azure Functions, AWS Lambda's, and Docker!
Just imagine how beautiful it will be to run hundreds of high performance microservices (each with numerous endpoints) with full telemetry, dead letter queue processing, throttling, orchestration, choreography, mediation, fail-over, auto scaling, and with the ability to make changes to the stack (deployments & rollbacks) without fear & without down time!
Call us, we'll show you how to use the cloud, how to leverage technology and how to manage it all correctly & efficiently for high quality outputs & success.
We use Agile/Scrum methods to:

A: Michael Bowman has decades of paid professional project experience with outstanding success (AKA proven results). He solves problems for clients in numerous business domains & industries from coast to coast & around the world. Michael continually hones his skills & learns new technologies, as well as methods, in order to ensure an easy & cost effective glide path to success. He applies design-patterns, best-practices & technology judiciously in order to provide you & your team with project success!
A: When clients refuse to adopt best-practices, design-patterns & Agile/Scrum methods, then there exists a high-risk of project failure as a result of runaway technical-debt and team-turbulence. When anti-patterns prevail, the client usually bleeds money, overruns timelines, and has a negative morale factor!
In short, we deal in reality-software-development, not fantasy-software-development. There is a difference between the two, and the latter has no place in our lives as it kills team morale, promotes engineer turnover, and costs the client lots of money!
WRS prefers clients that use Agile/Scrum (with metrics) in order to promote accountability, clarity, high velocity & high throughput.
A: We are not the most expensive players in the software-engineering & project-management space, but we are not the cheapest either. As the saying goes, "you get what you pay for".
We have great references, and we deliver! We know our craft, and we would love to help you achieve success with your projects. Our rates are very reasonable for the quality service we provide.
