Secure AI virtual data roomsCustom software for Wichita — built the AI-native way.
We pair senior engineers with an AI-accelerated delivery model to ship custom software for Wichita's aviation, manufacturing, and B2B operators — without the fragile output that gives AI a bad name.
AI changed the economics of custom software. We rebuilt our process around it.
Wichita is the country's largest aviation-manufacturing market — anchored by Spirit AeroSystems, Textron Aviation (Cessna and Beechcraft), Bombardier Learjet, Boeing's Wichita footprint, and a deep supplier ecosystem. Senior hires are six figures, months out, and picked over by aviation manufacturers, defense contractors, and the smaller venture-backed bench. AI changes the math, but only when senior people own the parts AI gets wrong.
On a Wichita aviation or manufacturing build, AI handles the repetitive 70% — schemas, scaffolding, CRUD, dashboards, glue. The 30% AI gets wrong is the part aviation quality engineers, AS9100 auditors, or shop-floor operators will catch: race conditions on a shop-floor write, traceability gaps that fail at a quality review, integration with bespoke aviation-MRO systems AI invents instead of reads, and supply-chain provenance AI invents instead of documents. Raw AI output ships those silently.
We build for Wichita operators — supplier portals and shop-floor apps for aviation-tier-one and -tier-two manufacturers, MRO and traceability platforms, defense and dual-use software shipping into program milestones, B2B SaaS shipping to regional buyers, and modernization of decades-old enterprise stacks. Our model: AI handles scaffolding and the repetitive 70%; a senior engineer owns architecture, security review, and signs off on every change.
AI writes the first draft. A senior engineer signs off.
Every change runs through review for security, tests, and architecture before it ships — that review is the product.
const draft = await ai.generate(spec) // minutes, not daysreview(draft, { security: true, tests: true, architecture: true })// ✗ rejected: concurrent shop-floor write without atomic update → CAS + retry + concurrent-write test// ✓ merged: traceability event recorded on every operation, supply-chain SBOM on every buildOn a Wichita aviation or manufacturing build, the failure modes are concurrent-write races, missing traceability events, and supply-chain provenance gaps. Senior review catches them before an AS9100 audit or a customer source-inspection does.
What we build for Wichita companies.
MES, IIoT & production software
Shop-floor systems, plant analytics, and supplier portals that connect old machines to new tools.
Defense & national-security software
Mission tools and analytics built for the security, classification, and integration standards your contracts require.
Supply-chain & ops platforms
Routing, dispatch, inventory, and visibility tools that replace clipboards and spreadsheets.
Modernization
Move legacy systems onto a modern, maintainable stack — incrementally, no big-bang.
SaaS platforms
Multi-tenant products with auth, billing, and dashboards — MVP to scale.
AI applications
Copilots, RAG, search, and agents grounded in your data, with guardrails and evals.
A senior team that moves at AI speed.
You work with senior engineers in Central Time who own architecture, aviation-quality posture, and integration with PLM and MRO systems — fitting into a Wichita supplier-engineering rhythm, an east-side B2B standup, or a Derby manufacturing PR review — not a junior pool with raw AI output bolted on.
Wichita's senior engineering pool is concentrated around Spirit AeroSystems, Textron, Bombardier, Boeing, and a smaller venture-backed bench — three-to-six months to hire and quietly poached by remote coastal roles. An AI-native team gets you shipping this week, flexes monthly, and doesn't need an office near the airport.
Talk to an engineerTraditional Wichita dev shop vs. AI-native.
| Traditional Agency | DEV.co (AI-native) | |
|---|---|---|
| Time to working software | Months | Days to weeks |
| Cost | Full senior rates, all hours | Lower — AI removes the rote work |
| Code quality | Good (if senior) | Same bar — every change reviewed |
| AI risk | — | Contained by senior review + tests |
| You own the code | Usually | Always — full repo on day one |
| Scales with you | Slow to staff up | Flex up or down monthly |

More from DEV.co
Wichita teams usually need more than one kind of build. These are the practices behind the work above.
Let's build it — Wichita.
Tell us what you're shipping. We'll give you a senior engineer's read, an honest timeline, a fixed quote, and tell you whether AI-native is the right fit for your build.
