A digital platform development company built on domain expertise, transatlantic market knowledge, and the conviction that the best platforms are built by people who genuinely understand the world they’re building for.
The Inbirch Group is the work of a single developer — a dual US/UK citizen and military veteran based in Kettering, Ohio. Every platform is conceived, architected, and built in-house. No subcontractors, no offshore teams, no agencies brought in to handle the parts that got complicated.
That constraint is also the differentiator. When one person carries the full stack — from database schema to deployment — the architecture reflects a coherent vision rather than a series of handoffs. The technical decisions and the business decisions are made by the same person, at the same time, with the same understanding of what the platform needs to do.
Military service provided the operational discipline. Dual citizenship provided the market knowledge. The rest came from building real platforms for real audiences and understanding the difference between what a brief says a platform needs and what the users of that platform actually need.
Every engagement starts with understanding the business problem before a single line of code is written. The technology serves the vision — never the other way around.
Full-stack PHP/MySQL application development from schema design to deployment. Multi-role systems, complex business logic, API integration, and security architecture built in from the start.
Complete platform design for entrepreneurs and businesses — database schema, user role structures, subscription systems, owner/admin portals, and the full application architecture before development begins.
For non-technical founders who have a platform concept but no technical co-founder. Translating business vision into buildable specifications, evaluating technical options, and navigating the gap between idea and execution.
Directory, community, and industry platforms for specific audiences — review systems, owner management portals, event listings, membership systems, and the editorial infrastructure that makes a platform a destination.
Digital products designed to operate simultaneously across US and UK markets — dual database architecture, market-specific compliance logic, currency handling, and audience-appropriate content and UX decisions.
For businesses running on outdated infrastructure that has outgrown its original build. Architectural assessment, migration planning, and a modern rebuild with the operational knowledge of what the original platform actually needed to do.
The most credible portfolio is production code serving real users. Every platform below was conceived, architected, and built entirely in-house — no agencies, no offshore teams, no templates.
Pub
Sniffers
pubsniffers.com
The British pub culture platform — more than a directory, less than everything it’s becoming.
Built from a genuine love of British pub culture, Pub Sniffers is a full-scale web application featuring interactive Leaflet mapping, a complete owner management portal, review and rating systems, menu management, event listings, recipe infrastructure, and a banner advertising network. The platform runs on a custom-built 75+ page admin system with multi-role authentication, CSRF protection, session security, and weighted content rotation. Architecture designed for a community platform, not just a directory.
Hire The
Veterans
hiretheveterans.com
Veteran employment done right — built by a veteran, for veterans, across two countries.
A dual-market veteran employment platform serving US and UK audiences simultaneously. Built on a dual-database architecture with market-specific logic, a 4-step registration system with Twilio phone verification, discharge status gating, role-based access control across veteran, employer, and admin layers, and a patriotic design system built for the audiences it serves. Not a job board — a veteran employment ecosystem designed by someone who understands the transition from service to civilian career from the inside.
The Inbirch
Group
theinbirchgroup.com
The corporate platform — CMS, editorial infrastructure, and the Inbirch Group brand presence.
A custom-built corporate web platform with section-based content management, a full blog system with accordion FAQ layout and moderated commenting, TinyMCE rich text integration, clean URL routing via .htaccess, and a complete architectural overhaul from legacy Joomla to a custom PHP/MySQL CMS. The platform that houses the consulting practice, the portfolio, and the editorial voice of The Inbirch Group.
Not every project is the right project. The engagements that produce the best results are those where the client has a real problem, a genuine vision, and the patience to build something that lasts rather than something that launches.
You have the idea, the domain knowledge, and the market understanding — but no technical co-founder and no desire to hand your vision to an agency that will build something generic. We translate vision into architecture and architecture into working platforms.
Your current site was built for where you were, not where you’re going. You need real application logic — owner portals, membership systems, booking infrastructure, multi-location management — not another redesign of the same limitations.
You operate across both markets and need a developer who genuinely understands both — not just someone who can add a currency toggle. Audience differences, compliance requirements, market-specific logic, and dual-infrastructure architecture are built into the foundation from day one.
You work in hospitality, veteran services, publishing, trade, or another niche where generic solutions consistently miss the mark. The best platforms are built by someone who understands the industry — not just the brief. Domain expertise is a design tool, not a nice-to-have.
Dual US/UK citizenship isn’t a marketing point — it’s operational reality. Both markets, both audiences, both business cultures, built into the way every project is approached from the start.
Based in Kettering, Ohio. Deep understanding of the US veteran employment landscape, federal contractor obligations around veteran hiring, and the US digital market’s expectations around platform UX, compliance, and scale. HireTheVeterans.com US launch is the primary market focus for veteran employment, with Pub Sniffers serving the significant American Anglophile and British-heritage audience.
UK citizenship and genuine fluency in British culture — not a surface-level understanding but the kind that builds Pub Sniffers from a real love of what a British pub actually means. UK market knowledge covering hospitality, veteran employment services, GDPR compliance considerations, and the distinct digital expectations of British audiences versus their American counterparts.
If you have a platform concept, a business that has outgrown its current site, or a US/UK venture that needs someone who genuinely understands both markets — let’s talk about what you’re trying to build.
