NextWave Systems · Freelance software development

Internal tools, dashboards, and automations that operations teams actually use.

I’m Dakota Blevins. Working in Python, React/Next.js, and Supabase/PostgreSQL, I replace spreadsheet-driven processes with real tools, build dashboards on live data, and connect the systems you already use — the software you actually need, without the overhead of an agency.

About

Five years of full-stack development, plus enterprise experience most freelancers never get near.

My day-to-day work is building and maintaining business-critical systems in the SAP world: SAP MII on the plant floor, SAP UI5 apps for the people running it. That teaches you to work carefully — understand the process first, change things deliberately, document what you did.

I bring the same discipline to NextWave Systems. Clear scope in plain language, regular updates while I build, and working software you actually own at the end. That holds whether it’s a two-week automation fix or a full application build.

Services

What I can build for you

  • Dashboards & reporting

    KPI dashboards and automated reports that replace spreadsheet wrangling. The numbers your team needs, always current, one link away.

  • Automation & integrations

    Python scripts and API integrations that connect the systems you already use and cut out the copy-paste work in between.

  • Internal tools & data

    Admin panels, workflow tools, and database cleanup. Messy spreadsheets and ad-hoc processes become software that scales with you.

  • Web application development

    Full-stack web apps built with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. From a focused MVP to a production app your team relies on every day.

  • Enterprise & SAP

    SAP UI5 application development and SAP MII support, backed by years of hands-on experience in manufacturing environments.

  • Ongoing support

    Retainer-style maintenance and improvements after launch, so what I build keeps working and keeps getting better.

How it works

A simple, predictable engagement

  1. 01

    Scope

    We start with a short call or written brief. You get a plain-language proposal with clear scope, timeline, and price. No surprises later.

  2. 02

    Build

    I work in short iterations and share progress as I go. You see working software early and can course-correct while it's cheap to do.

  3. 03

    Deliver

    You get deployed, documented software, and you own the code. I walk your team through everything before we call it done.

  4. 04

    Support

    Most clients keep me on for improvements and maintenance. Prefer to run it yourself? The handoff makes that easy too.
