About

Hello, I'm Josh

I run WiltshireTech on my own from East Wiltshire. It's a local technology service for people who want a straight answer and a person who turns up.

Josh, founder of WiltshireTech

Why I started this

I have a Computer Science degree from UWE Bristol. The thing I kept coming back to throughout it was how often technology problems aren't really technology problems: they're someone being spoken to in language they were never given a reason to understand.

My own family are the reason this exists. Watching someone competent and capable be made to feel stupid by a router, or told to "just reset your credentials", is what convinced me there was a service worth running here. So the rule I've set myself is simple: explain it in plain English, or don't say it.

WiltshireTech is new, and I'd rather say so than pretend to a decade of trading I haven't done. What I can point you to is the work itself: this site and the demos on the Business page show the kind of websites and systems I can deliver. Beyond that, you get the person who did the work, every time.

Background

What I actually studied

Useful mostly for business customers deciding whether I can build the thing they need. If you're here about a printer, none of this matters. Just ring me.

Software & web development

Building web applications end to end: the interface people use, the logic underneath, and the database behind that. This site is my own work.

Machine learning & computer vision

Training and deploying image classification models, including making them explain their own decisions rather than acting as a black box.

Systems & automation

Connecting separate systems so information moves between them by itself, and building the automated pipelines that keep the process running.

The practical version: if you need a website, a system to replace a spreadsheet, or a job doing itself instead of being typed out three times, that's the work I'm trained for.

The way I work, in four lines.

  • You'll know what something costs before I start it.
  • If it isn't worth paying me for, I'll say so.
  • If it's beyond me, I'll tell you rather than learn on your money.
  • If I use a word you don’t know, stop me and I’ll put it another way.

Where I work

Based in East Wiltshire, covering the wider Wiltshire area

I travel to homes across the county and the villages around it. If you're further out than that, ask before assuming the answer is no. Business work can often be done remotely wherever you are.

Happy to talk it through

Whether it's a laptop that won't behave or a system your business has outgrown, tell me about it. Working out what's actually needed is my job.
