Cipher Development is a small, Bay Area web development shop where the developers doing the work are the ones clients talk to directly. There are no overseas handoffs and no account managers sitting between a client and the person writing the code, just experienced developers focused on shipping software that works.
Services span frontend and backend development, custom websites and web applications built to spec, and headless CMS setups tailored to how a given team actually operates. API and systems integration work rounds out the build side, while ongoing support covers managed web hosting, WordPress hosting, cloud hosting across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and VPS or dedicated server management. Beyond the build, the shop offers technical guidance on architecture, code quality, and front-end strategy, aiming for delivery that's on time and without drama.
Hosting is treated as a continuing responsibility rather than a handoff: sites are kept fast, secure, and up through ongoing support rather than a one-time launch. The pitch is straightforward — clean code, reliable delivery, and a developer who actually picks up the phone.
