About Dan Khan

I have been developing websites of all sizes for the last 12 years, working both internationally in the UK and with local businesses in NZ. Having founded- and worked in- many fast-paced web technology start-ups, I know what it takes to make an online business work.

Key Skills Summary

• Proven development and delivery of highly scalable, performant data-driven web systems.
• Execution of web technology start-ups at all levels from CTO to coder to sysadmin.
• Scalable architectural design and development of Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP systems.
• User-centric and agile design using technologies such as jQuery/Ajax to aid usability.
• Solid understanding of Web 2.0 and third party integration through APIs.
• Best software engineering practices and broad knowledge-base of both front end & backend.
• Effective remote/local team and project management skills.

Why Work With Me?

• I am not a salesman - I give you my wealth of experience without referring you to someone more 'technical'.
• Pay for me, get me - I don't take your work and give it to lower paid less-experienced juniors - pay for me, you get me!
• I don't cost the Earth - My rates are industry-average, and I can work within your specific project budget if that suits.
• Brand me as your own - Either make me look like part of your creative team or refer me direct to clients - I'm easy!
• Win bigger projects - Bring me to client meetings to recommend interactive solutions that you hadn't thought of.
• International scale - Unlike many web developers, I've worked with websites that perform on a massive global scale.
• I run businesses - I've run larger creative and Internet companies so I understand business requirements.
