Jerry's Home Improvement

Custom business applications and data engineering for one of Oregon's largest independent home improvement retailers — the internal systems the store runs on.

Jerry’s Home Improvement is a Eugene, Oregon institution — one of the largest independent home improvement retailers in the Northwest. Our work with Jerry’s isn’t a website: it’s the internal software and data infrastructure the business runs on.

  • Custom application development. We develop and maintain internal .NET line-of-business applications used daily by the company’s teams — versioned in git, built and shipped through automated CI/CD pipelines.
  • SQL Server data engineering. Schema design and change management on the company’s shared SQL Server databases, done with the discipline enterprise data deserves: schema-as-code, controlled deployments, and careful separation between application domains.
  • Systems documentation. We wrote the plain-language systems-and-data schematic Jerry’s management uses to understand their own IT ecosystem — every application, every data flow, on one map.
  • Ongoing operations. Data corrections, integration work, and the unglamorous fixes that keep line-of-business systems trustworthy year after year.

The shadow work: thousands of customers walk the aisles every week. Behind the registers is a data ecosystem — documented, version-controlled, and quietly maintained.
