Why hire me

A Redmine developer you work with directly

Hiring a Redmine developer is easier when the expertise, the code and the communication all come from one person.

Work directly with the developer

No agency, no account managers. The person you talk to is the person who writes, tests and supports your code.
28 Redmine plugins delivered

Custom plugins, client extensions and upgrades for Redmine 5.0 to 6.1 — integrations, helpdesk, time tracking, billing, forms and notifications.
Ruby on Rails architect

12 years of software development, so plugins are built the Rails way: maintainable, upgrade-aware and without core hacks.
See it working before you pay

For small projects you see the finished work running before releasing 70%, and pay the final 30% after your own testing.

Ways to hire

Choose how you want to work together

Hire a dedicated Redmine developer

Need someone who knows your Redmine installation and keeps improving it? Hire me as your dedicated Redmine developer on an hourly basis at $30/hour. I learn your workflows, plugins and data once, and keep building on that knowledge — no re-explaining your setup to a new person every time.

Ongoing plugin development and customization
Maintenance, bug fixes and Redmine upgrades
A consistent point of contact for your Redmine platform
Flexible hours as your needs change

Hire a freelance Redmine developer

Have a specific job — a new plugin, a workflow change, an integration or an upgrade? Hire me as a freelance Redmine developer for that project. I review your requirements, give you an estimate and timeline, and deliver against an agreed scope.

Clear scope and estimate before work starts
Small projects: demo first, then 70%, then 30% after testing
Larger projects start with a 30% advance
Code handed over to your repository or server

Hire a remote Redmine developer

I work remotely from India with clients in other countries. Everything a Redmine project needs can be done remotely: requirements by email and scheduled calls, development in my local environment, and deployment to your server or repository as agreed.

Communication by email and scheduled calls
Demos of working features before delivery
Deployment support and documentation
Payment through PayPal or Payoneer

Looking to hire Redmine developers for a bigger project?

I work as one dedicated developer, not a team — and many Redmine projects don't need more than that. I handle plugin architecture, development, testing and deployment support myself, which keeps decisions consistent and communication simple. If you already have in-house developers, I can work alongside them as your Redmine specialist.

FAQ

Hiring a Redmine developer: common questions

Can I hire you as a dedicated Redmine developer?

Yes. You can work with me on an ongoing basis at $30 per hour for plugin development, customization, maintenance and support. You work directly with me — I am an independent developer, not an agency.

Do you take freelance Redmine projects?

Yes. For a defined piece of work, such as a new plugin, a workflow change or an integration, I provide an estimate after reviewing your requirements. For small projects I show you the finished work running in my local environment first; you release 70% after the demo and the remaining 30% after testing.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. I work remotely from India with clients in other countries, communicating by email and scheduled calls, and delivering code to your repository or server as agreed.

I need several Redmine developers. Can you help?

I work as one dedicated developer rather than a team. Many Redmine projects don’t need more than that: I handle the plugin architecture, development, testing and deployment support myself, and I can work alongside your in-house developers if you have them.

Which Redmine versions do you work with?

My recent plugins have been delivered for Redmine 5.0, 6.0 and 6.1, and I also upgrade existing plugins to newer Redmine versions.

How do I pay?

I accept payment through PayPal and Payoneer. Larger projects start with a 30% advance.
