Developer Partners

What Developer Partners does

Developer Partners is a privately held, bootstrapped custom software development services firm headquartered in Los Angeles, California, founded in 2020 by software engineer Hayk Shirinyan. The company delivers full-stack software development using a specialized Microsoft-centric stack (.NET, .NET Core, C#, SQL Server, Entity Framework, Azure) combined with front-end frameworks (Angular, React, React Native, TypeScript), targeting small businesses, startups, and mid-market or enterprise clients across healthcare, manufacturing, legal services, and human resources verticals.

Its core offering is professional services delivered on either hourly or fixed-scope engagements, with MVP development typically priced at $20,000-$30,000 over a 3-4 month timeline. The firm markets itself as a long-term partner offering approximately 50% cost savings versus hiring individual developers, with expertise spanning multi-tenant SaaS architecture, ERP, CRM, ATS, and complex integrations. Notable technical capabilities include multi-tenant SaaS patterns with data isolation, Azure infrastructure management, and middleware integrations with platforms such as SmartRecruiters.

Go-to-market relies on direct sales and free consultations, supplemented by profiles on Upwork (Top Rated Plus), Clutch, and DesignRush, plus content marketing through a technical blog and a free developer tool suite branded Free Tech Society. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, the company is entirely founder-owned with no external investors, and headcount remains in the 1-10 range, positioning Developer Partners as a boutique, founder-led agency rather than a venture-backed scale-stage company.
