Or call now: 0413 360 463Sound familiar?
Most of the businesses we work with arrive with one of these problems. If any of them sound like your week, we should talk.
Your website is 5+ years old
Slow on mobile, no longer ranks, the CMS is unsupported. You know it's costing you customers but it's never been the priority. Until now.
SaaS subscriptions don't talk to each other
Xero, your CRM, the booking tool, that one spreadsheet — and someone is exporting CSVs daily to keep it all in sync.
A spreadsheet runs part of your business
It started as a quick fix. Now it's the master client list, the production schedule, or the quote calculator nobody else fully understands.
Your last developer ghosted you
Half-built project, half-paid invoice, no documentation, no responses. You need someone you can actually reach when something breaks.
An old system nobody can change
MS Access, classic ASP, an old WordPress, or a custom thing the original developer wrote 10 years ago. It runs the business but it's a black box.
Just need a website built properly
Sometimes you don't have a complex problem — you just need a fast, mobile-friendly site that ranks well and doesn't break. From $1k landing pages to multi-page small-business sites.
What we build
We work across the full SMB spectrum — from $1k landing pages to $300k custom SaaS platforms. Same Brisbane team, scaled to fit your project.

Client Success Stories
Real impact for businesses and startups across Australia.
"Hireadev played a critical role in architecting our core infrastructure. Their ability to solve complex technical problems while delivering high-performance features in record time was a major competitive advantage for our growth."
Industries we know
We've worked with these Australian SMB verticals enough to skip the lecture about how your industry works. Pick yours, see what we typically build.
Senior engineering, SMB pricing
Hireadev exists because most Australian small businesses get stuck between two bad options for software work — cheap offshore agencies that ghost mid-project, or city-firm consultancies that quote $80k for a problem that should cost $20k. We're the third option.
"A $1,500 landing page for a local trades business gets the same care as a $200,000 platform for a funded startup. The scope is different, the price is different — the rigour isn't."
— Ryan Brooker, Founder, Hireadev
Hireadev was founded by Ryan Brooker, a Brisbane-based systems engineer who got tired of watching Australian SMBs pay enterprise rates for SMB problems — or pay offshore rates and regret it. We work across the spectrum: $1k landing pages, $15k small-business websites, $30k internal tools, $150k SaaS builds. Same Brisbane team, scaled to fit the project.
Every engagement starts with a paid discovery — we map what you actually need, write a fixed-scope quote, and you own the spec whether you proceed with us or not. No surprise invoices, no offshoring, no lock-in. Code goes in your GitHub from day one. Want to talk through your project? Call us on 0413 360 463 or book a free 30-minute call.
