Who you'll work with
I'm Alex Sands, an AWS Certified Solutions Architect. I build and run dashboards, automation, and websites for small businesses, and I work directly with every client. No handoffs, no account managers. I review everything I touch, including my own work, so you'll always get straight feedback from me.
What I Do
S&S Technologies is a small, hands-on practice. I build dashboards, automate workflows, and build and host websites. What sets me apart? I operate what I build. I run an independent software studio on cost-optimized infrastructure.
Systems I Run in Production
I don't just advise; I build. I run live production systems handling real traffic and business operations. This includes automated code workflows and content systems. When you work with me, you get capabilities validated in production, not just theory.
Build, Host, and Upkeep
From initial strategy to implementation to ongoing optimization, I handle the build, hosting, and upkeep so you don't need an in-house developer. Want clearer numbers from the spreadsheets you already keep? Less copy and paste between tools? A website that loads fast and stays up? I offer three ways to work together: a one-time strategy session, an ongoing retainer, or a fixed-scope custom project.
Services I Offer
Best fit: teams of 5 to 50 who run on spreadsheets and email and want clearer numbers without a new system. Not a fit: mobile apps or large enterprise builds.
Your numbers in one place, without the spreadsheet digging
I pull the numbers you already track in spreadsheets, email, and the tools you use into one dashboard that updates itself. Sales, jobs, invoices, whatever you check every week. It runs on lean cloud hosting, so you pay for what you use and nothing else.
Take the repetitive work off your plate
I automate the tasks that eat up your week: copying data between tools, turning emails into tasks, sending reports and reminders. Where AI helps, I use it, and I keep your running costs low. Everything comes documented and tested before I hand it over.
A professional site that loads fast and stays up
Fast, mobile-friendly websites that I design, build, and host. I set up the hosting and deployment and keep it running afterwards, so you don't need a developer on staff. Custom design or a template, depending on what you need and what you want to spend.

- Problem
- Their website needed a redesign and someone to keep it running.
- What I built
- Website redesign, deployment, hosting, and ongoing updates.
"I recently hired S&S Technologies to re-design and deploy a new website for my small company. Alex, the owner, was very responsive to our initial needs, and at my request, was extremely creative and in providing us with innovative designs. The whole process from design to deployment was very professional, timely, and personal. The end result is a site that exceeded all of our expectations and has already become a key tool in our business operations. S&S Technologies continues to provide hosting services for our site and is now part of our preferred IT vendor list. We will definitely use them for many more of our IT needs moving forward. I highly recommend S&S Technologies as a trusted partner."
