Custom websites, dashboards & automation — built to fit.

I'm a freelance software engineer based in Ireland. I build websites for businesses, dashboards and tools for teams, and automation that cuts out manual work. I look after the hosting and support once things are live.

Who I help

Two kinds of project, one engineer

I work with two kinds of client: sole traders and businesses who need a great website, and growing teams who need something custom built to fit how they work.

Sole traders & businessesFixed price · fast turnaround

A website that works as hard as you do

I design and build it, host it, and keep it running. You get a fast, professional site that brings in enquiries, without juggling a developer, a host and a CMS separately.

Modern, responsive design
Hosting & long-term support included
Built to turn visitors into enquiries
Teams & growing businessesScoped per project

Custom software, built around how you work

Need a dashboard, an internal tool, or something that connects your existing systems? I scope it properly, build it in short cycles so you can see where it's going, and hand it over documented. Get in touch and we'll work out if it's a good fit.

What I do

Clean websites for businesses, sharp dashboards for teams, automation that replaces slow manual work, and a second pair of expert hands when a project needs one.

01

Websites

Responsive websites for businesses. Fast to load, good to look at, and set up to get people to contact you. Fixed price, with hosting and long-term support included.

ResponsiveHosting & supportSEO-ready
02

Custom Dashboards

Dashboards that pull your tickets, inventory, metrics or operations into one screen, built around how your team works. Hosting and support included.

Technical Consulting

A second pair of expert hands for architecture reviews, tooling decisions, and getting a stuck project moving again.

04

Automation

Repetitive work turned into a process that runs itself. Scripts, integrations, or whatever fits the job. Document processing, data pipelines, internal tooling that connects to what you already use.

WorkflowsIntegrationScripting
Selected work

Proof, not promises

Some recent projects: a university operations platform, a business website, a microservice, a security pipeline, and a technical audit.

Business website

Praktijk Oosting

WebsiteHosting & supportSEO-ready

A website for a small practice. It loads fast, looks the part, and the owner doesn't have to think about it. Hosting and support are handled, so it just keeps working.

Outcome

Enquiries up. Owner just gets on with running the practice.

Custom dashboard

Hanze Makerspace

AzureDockerCI/CDDashboards

An all-in-one operations dashboard for the Hanze University makerspace: ticketing for job requests, live staff–student chat, file storage, and an inventory & reservation system, with sign-in through Azure Active Directory. Hosted on Azure virtual machines running the databases, web servers and CI/CD pipelines, with Docker for scalability.

Outcome

Dramatically streamlined day-to-day workflow for makerspace staff.

Technical due diligence

Solar Options NZ

ConsultingArchitectureAudit

Brought in for technical due diligence on a decision the team couldn't confidently evaluate in-house. Came prepared, asked the right things on the ground, and delivered clear, actionable findings.

Outcome

Clear findings that let them move forward with confidence.

Supply-chain security pipeline

DICTU

KubernetesGitLab CI/CDDependency-TrackSecurity

Deployed a Dependency-Track server on a Kubernetes cluster and extended existing GitLab CI/CD pipelines so every current and future project reports its dependencies into one security dashboard. Integrating the full project portfolio into a single, continuously-updated view.

Outcome

One live dashboard for supply-chain risk across every project.

Operator-lookup microservice & API

Voys

GoEchoAPIMicroservices

A microservice and API that identify the current operator for any Dutch phone number in real time, drawing on COIN data. Built in Go with the Echo framework and designed to scale. Delivered as a project; deployed to production and feeding useful telecom metrics.

Outcome

Fast, accurate operator identification at scale.

How I work

Calm, transparent delivery

01

Understand

We talk through your business, your customers, and what the site or tool needs to do before any design work starts.

02

Build & launch

I build it in short cycles so you see real progress early, then take it live.

03

Host & support

I host it and keep it running. Updates, monitoring and support are included. You don't have to manage any of that.

About

Bastiaan Prummel

My background is in building internal tools, operations platforms and APIs. Most recently a full-stack dashboard, and before that microservices and security pipelines. I went freelance because I wanted to work directly with the people who actually use what I build.

As a registered irish sole trader, I work end-to-end or slot into your existing team. I'll tell you honestly if a project isn't a good fit. If it is, I'll see it through with clear scope, straight communication, and software you fully own.

FAQ

Good questions, answered

Who owns the code and the design?

You do — fully. The code and design are yours, documented and free of platform lock-in, even when I'm handling the hosting day to day.

Do you offer ongoing support?

Yes, hosting and long-term support are included as standard on websites and dashboards. For larger custom software projects, a full handover to your own team is also an option.

Can you work with my existing team or systems?

Both. I take projects end to end, or slot into an existing team and integrate with the tools and APIs you already run.

What does a project cost?

Business websites are fixed-price and quick to turn around. Custom software, dashboards and larger websites are scoped per project. Either way you get a clear quote up front.

How long does it take?

A small business website is typically a couple of weeks. Custom software depends on scope, but I work in short cycles so you see working software early.

Where are you based?

Co. Limerick, Ireland. Working remotely with clients anywhere.
