Friendly, practical, business-savvy developers

Yes, we really do exist.

Developers and designers from J Street gather to discuss a project

Who we are

The venture that began with a lone programmer toiling away in a spare bedroom, back in 1994, has since grown into J Street Technology, a thriving and widely acclaimed custom software development shop near Seattle, WA. Over the years, we've designed and developed hundreds of custom database applications, tools, and components.

Today, our staff includes about a dozen creative, resourceful project managers, designers, and programmers, some of whom have been with us for more than ten years. Loyalty like that really tells you something about who we are as a company - and as human beings, too.
