aws partners amd atlassian partners

Powerful Partners

Everyone thinks their own company is great. In Sketch’s case, Amazon and Atlassian agree.

  • AWS Cloud Select Tier Partner – Well-versed in cloud engineering, Sketch is recognized for expertise with AWS technologies, programs, and tools.
  • Atlassian Silver Solution Partner – If it feels more like your tools are working against you, it’s time to become a super user. You can even use our proprietary Jira add-ons.

USA-based software engineers… really

It feels like we shouldn't have to say it, but some companies throw  “US-based” around with a little less care than one would expect. 

We don’t offshore, nearshore, white label, or otherwise outsource our engagements. Most of our team sits together in a quiet neighborhood in St. Louis, right in the middle of the United States.

Software development partners for the long haul

Some of the software development companies you find on Clutch are more like marketing and staffing agencies. They find a bunch of projects, then outsource the work for the lowest possible cost. When you hire Sketch, you’re not going to a body shop that only wants to throw hours on your credit card. 

Instead, you’re working with experienced software developers, coaches, and consultants who deliver world-class solutions. We earn your repeat business by making you wildly successful, engagement after engagement.

Hidden Costs of Cheap Software Development

Software development companies that outsource their work might pay their engineers between $1,500 and $3,000 per month. We’ll never compete with them on hourly rates. We’d rather protect you from the costs that could really hurt your business. There are some corners you can't afford to cut.

Sketch's software development services

We work with just about everyone who’s involved in delivering great products – product owners, technical teams, scrum masters, and business leaders. Most of our engagements fall into one of these four categories.

Software development services

We’ll build it with you. We’ll build it for you. We’ll help teach you how to build it yourself. Tell us what you want to accomplish, and we’ll match you with the appropriate expert from our team (before we charge you a dime).

Atlassian implementation services

Using Atlassian’s tools the right way won’t solve all your problems, but using them the wrong way can have devastating effects. With the right tooling and processes in place, you can focus on delivering products that change the world (or, at the very least, your bottom line).

Product development coaching services

From leadership coaching to company-wide training, outcome-focused consulting helps market leaders anticipate and satisfy customer needs. Volatile economies aren’t as dangerous when you’re in control of your direction, scope, and structure.

Cloud engineering and cloud migration services

We stay up to date with the latest cloud architecture (as validated by AWS) so we’re ready to help you with any or all of the following:

  • cloud migration
  • cloud cost control
  • managed cloud services
  • cloud architecture consulting
  • co-development of your cloud applications

We have happy clients.

Everything we do is about the outcomes, so our clients see awesome results — and it’s not just us saying that.

What I like about Sketch is that they have a broad mindset with a local attitude. They don't attempt to mimic other large consulting companies. Sketch has an internally developed brand that has broad appeal, and actions that match their word. I can't think of anything specific that I would recommend as an improvement. I'm certain they debate this internally quite a bit to be a best-in-class service provider.

Eric Eicher | Director of Valuation Operations, Reinsurance Group of America

Sketch delivered in a shorter time frame than anticipated; we had estimated a full-year for the team transformation and agile adoption but completed this two months early. Sketch has an amazing ability to co-design a boutique solution that was unique to us. Rather than attempting to fit an off-the-shelf operating model that other consulting firms sell in, they listened to our department challenges and delivered the right approach for us. Being able to navigate conflicting opinions in a room with clients to get to an aligned outcome is a true gift.

Pam Jordan | Product Management Director, Purina Petcare

This project was in flux from the start because of the fact that we were building this instrument from the ground up, and writing the software to drive it at the same time. Without Sketch's management, I'm not sure that this would have been the success that it was. I don't recall having gone through a sprint without at least one pivot, and their team just rolled with it. I also don't recall completing a sprint without a functional demo. Throughout the project, I never felt that we were at risk, nor did I ever feel that any request would be too much for them to handle.

Lane Maxwell | Senior Consultant, Adarza Biosystems

Sketch Development's tool significantly reduced the time required to generate quotes, increasing from 5–8 quotes a day to 136 quotes in a day. Their team worked with our ideas, expanded on those ideas, and delivered more than we imagined possible for the final product. Zero complaints, period.

Matt Small | VP of Sales at Leading Edge Safety

The team demonstrated an excellent mindset, showcased outstanding skill sets, and communicated via in-person and virtual meetings. Their knowledge and focus resulted in a positive partnership.

Travis Duncan | Director of Digital UX Design, BJC Healthcare

Whether we're working with startups or the Fortune 100, our first concern is providing value, not extracting it.
