Developer Tools & SDK Consulting

Janea Systems engineers build the frictionless developer experiences that drive product adoption.

Why Engineering Leaders Trust Janea Systems

A powerful platform, API, or hardware accelerator is only as valuable as its developer experience. When SDKs are clunky, toolchains are brittle, or documentation is unclear, adoption stalls and your competitive advantage erodes. Janea Systems bridges this critical gap. We engineer the world-class developer tools, multi-platform SDKs, and seamless integrations that transform complex backend technology into intuitive, developer-loved tooling. Trusted by Microsoft for the full lifecycle of developer tooling — from building the Azure Maps iOS SDK for over a billion devices to owning and modernizing mission-critical ecosystems like PowerToys and React Native for Windows, and ensuring the stability of core frameworks like Node.js and PyTorch on Windows —we understand that world-class tooling is a product, not a side project. Our elite engineers act as long-term stewards of your developer experience, building the frictionless foundation required to accelerate user onboarding, expand your market reach, and unlock the true potential of your platform. We don't just write code; we build the engines of adoption.

The High Cost of a Poor Developer Experience

For engineering leaders, a poor developer experience is a direct threat to product and business goals. It creates friction that repels users, slows innovation, and creates technical and reputational risks that prevent you from winning enterprise customers or expanding into new markets.

Platform Adoption Barriers

Your product is locked into a single ecosystem, like Linux, preventing you from capturing the massive developer communities on Windows, ARM64, or mobile platforms. This severely limits your total addressable market and growth potential.

Complex Product Onboarding

A steep learning curve, inconsistent APIs, and a lack of intuitive SDKs frustrate developers, leading to high abandonment rates. Your powerful features remain undiscovered because the initial experience is too difficult.

Legacy Toolchain Drag

Outdated, poorly maintained internal and external toolchains create a drag on productivity and innovation. Your team spends more time fighting the tools than building new features, and developers look to competitors with modern workflows.

Inconsistent Developer Workflows

Your portfolio of products offers a fragmented and inconsistent developer experience, forcing users to re-learn workflows for each tool. This lack of cohesion damages your brand and frustrates developers who expect a unified platform.

Poor CLI & IDE Integration

Modern developers live in their IDE and terminal. Lacking a polished CLI or seamless IDE plug-ins forces them out of their preferred workflow, creating constant friction and a perception that your platform is outdated.

Niche Language Gaps

Your platform fails to provide native-feel SDKs for modern, high-demand languages like Python, Rust, or .NET. This alienates large segments of the developer community and makes integration a significant hurdle for potential customers.

Our Developer Tools & SDK Capabilities

We provide strategic, end-to-end ownership of the developer experience. Our elite engineering pods act as a seamless extension of your team, using deep systems expertise to build the robust and intuitive tooling developers expect, de-risking your roadmap and accelerating adoption.

Cross-Platform SDK Enablement

We port and maintain software for new platforms, enabling frameworks like Node.js, PyTorch, and React Native to achieve first-class support on Windows and ARM64. We unlock new markets by delivering high-performance, native-feel SDKs across all critical ecosystems.

Native-Feel iOS & Mobile SDKs

We architect and build polished SDKs with a native feel that developers love. We delivered the Azure Maps iOS SDK for Microsoft, transforming a complex backend service into developer-loved tooling and extending its reach to a billion iOS devices ahead of schedule.

Toolchain Modernization & Hardening

We take ownership of revitalizing your entire developer toolchain, from compilers and build systems to CI/CD pipelines. We re-architect legacy systems for the modern era, as demonstrated by our leadership in the community relaunch of Microsoft PowerToys.

Long-Term Framework Stewardship

We provide stable, long-term maintenance for critical developer frameworks. Our decade-long collaboration on Node.js for Windows turned a Linux-centric runtime into a cross-platform enterprise workhorse, boosting file I/O performance by 40%.

Modern CLI & IDE Extensions

We build powerful CLIs and IDE plug-ins that meet developers where they are. By creating a seamless, integrated experience in their favorite environment, we reduce friction and make your platform the path of least resistance.

Multi-Language Porting & Support

We extend your platform's reach by designing and building SDKs for the languages your customers use most, including .NET, Node.js, Rust, and Python. Our deep, multi-language expertise ensures your SDKs feel native and idiomatic to each developer community.
