Custom admin & internal tools
CRUD back offices, operations dashboards, and internal tooling with search, permissions, exports, and layouts built for people who use them all day.
Internal tools carry a lot of a business and get almost none of the design attention. I build the ones that operations, support and finance teams live in — and I build them to be fast to use, not just fast to load.
That means keyboard-first workflows, search that finds things, permissions that are enforced and visible, and layouts designed around the task the operator actually does forty times a day.
- CRUD interfaces with search, filtering, bulk actions, and an audit trail
- Role and permission handling that is enforced server-side and reflected clearly in the UI
- Dashboards with the metrics that drive decisions, plus CSV and PDF exports that match what people paste into spreadsheets anyway
- Real-time or polling views for queues, jobs and operational state
- Operator workflows: multi-step actions, confirmations for the destructive ones, and undo where it is feasible
- A layout system so new admin screens take hours, not days
- Your team runs the business out of a spreadsheet and a database client
- An internal tool exists but everyone complains about it
- You are outgrowing a no-code admin and need real control
- Support and operations are blocked waiting on engineering for data
Usually yes. I can build against your current schema directly, or through an API layer if the data lives behind services. Read-only to start is a common and safe first step.
Enforced on the server for every action, with the UI hiding or disabling what the current user cannot do so nobody is surprised by a 403.
Different polish. Nobody needs animation on a refund screen, but they very much need it to be fast, legible, and hard to misuse.
