About Us

Based in King Alfred's Winchester, England, we have years of experience developing applications and solutions for organisations large and small.

At Westsmith, we deliver high-quality software solutions for organisations that value reliability, speed, and clarity. We’ve helped government departments, startups, and enterprise clients solve complex problems and ship production-ready systems.

Founded in 2019 by Daniel Ball, the company was initially created to deliver contract work for IBM. In the following years we have delivered multiple contracts and freelance work for many different goverment clients and large organisations, such as the Office for National Statistics and Vodafone.

Our team brings deep expertise in:

• Backend development using Python, Go, and modern API frameworks like FastAPI, Flask and Django
• Cloud infrastructure across AWS and GCP, including serverless architecture, container orchestration and infrastructure as code
• DevOps and SRE practices to ensure stable and automated deployments
• Full-stack delivery, from prototypes to production, with a strong grasp of front-end templating, CI/CD and testing pipelines

We’ve contributed to mission-critical systems for the Office for National Statistics, University of Cambridge, Babylon Health, Vodafone, IBM, and others. Whether supporting large-scale platforms or working with early-stage teams, we bring the same principles: clear communication, pragmatic design and a focus on delivering value early.

We're hands-on engineers who aren’t afraid to dive into legacy code, modernise cloud infrastructure, or build from the ground up. We also keep a sharp eye on emerging technologies, including LLMs and AI agents.
