Ross Hamilton

I'm Ross, the founder and managing director of SteamDesk. I've been involved in all sorts of web development since the early 90s when I studied Computer Science to PhD level. I really am a Website Doctor!

I decided to expand my successful contracting business into a fully-fledged development house in the early part of 2010. As well as embracing new technologies we still support many legacy apps (including ColdFusion, classic ASP, VB and many more) so if you are struggling to support older systems then please contact us.

We are not systems evangelists - we're equally happy working on a range of platforms. We're experts at finding solutions that will pull data in from a range of sources, from dedicated XML/RSS feeds to hand-written exporters for legacy systems. If necessary, we'll even write a screen-scrape to pull data from a source with no API.

Some of our clients started with me over ten years ago - we keep customers happy, and they keep coming back to us.

Benjamin Allen

I'm the talented youngster of the group. I am a graduate with five years professional experience including working with a large design agency creating exciting websites and mobile apps for companies both large and small. I joined SteamDesk because I was excited about working on a broader range of projects, and developing my technical skills in a large number of different technologies.

I bring the attention to detail, the methodical approach and an "only the best will do" attitude to all of my work - I'm very passionate about each and every project. I'm also very approachable when it comes to explaining the concepts involved.

I enjoy fast cars, both to drive and dismantle, and I love drinking all the coffee Devrah and Ross can make - even when they forget the sugar!

Devrah Mitchell

I'm Devrah and I am the leading lady at SteamDesk. I come from a customer service background and so I help people understand what we do by explaining it in English - not technical speak. I am usually the first person you will speak to on the phone - with my light touch and friendly banter, my goal is to make you laugh at belly least once before you ring off :-)

For the past twenty years I have worked with all kinds of companies from Blue Chips to lone entrepreneurs, always making sure that I deliver the service you want. I'm friendly and approachable so feel free to contact me about anything you are struggling with or any bright idea that you want to turn into a reality. If you do want to talk technical I can always pass you through to the boys.

I also never miss an opportunity for a cup of tea (Red Bush is my preference!) and a chat so if you are passing, please do call in for a brew.
