About Rubber Duck Engineering
Software consulting that gets to the root of it.
We're a software engineering consultancy built on a simple idea: the best way to solve a hard problem is to explain it clearly. Named after the time-tested rubber duck debugging technique, we bring curiosity, clarity, and deep technical chops to every project.
Whether you need to untangle a legacy system, design something new from scratch, or just need a second pair of eyes on a tricky architecture decision, we're here to help.
What we value
Clarity over cleverness
Simple, maintainable solutions beat clever hacks every time.
Listen first
We understand your problem deeply before writing a single line of code.
Ship it
Working software in production beats a perfect plan on a whiteboard.
Leave it better
Every engagement should leave your team more capable than before.
How we work
We embed with your team for focused engagements. No bloated SOWs, no armies of junior consultants. You get senior engineers who've built, broken, and fixed systems at scale. We pair, we review, we ship — and we make sure the knowledge transfers.
