Patterns In Design

A small studio in Central Texas

Small things,
made with care.

We're the studio behind Job Training Academy and the Patterns In Design pattern shop. We build small, useful products and ship them ourselves — no clients, no quarterly roadmaps, no rush.

Three things,

we hold to.

Most software fails quietly — not at the demo, but at month three, when the edges show and nobody's paying attention. That's where we like to spend our time.

  1. 01

    We ship our own products.

    We build, run, and support what we make. The feedback loop is short and the incentives are honest — when something breaks, the person fixing it is the same person who promised it would work.

  2. 02

    We sweat the operational details.

    Reports that reconcile. Records that survive an audit. The boring parts are usually the ones that decide whether a tool earns its keep — so we treat them like the main event.

  3. 03

    We stay small on purpose.

    A narrow focus and a short list of customers means we can keep our promises and answer the phone. We're not trying to be the biggest anything — we'd rather be the one you'd recommend.

Done quietly, on time, and built to last.
— what we're after, every time
