Portfolio

SaaS products across education, civic tech, faith, and developer tooling.

Each product has its own standalone app and marketing repo. The common thread is full-stack execution: product strategy, polished interfaces, secure backends, native mobile, integrations, and release discipline.

Expertise

The value is not one layer. It is the whole product system.

The products in this portfolio require resident-facing apps, parent apps, teacher tools, admin dashboards, subscription systems, AI features, audit trails, background jobs, launch operations, and support paths.

Frontend across every surface

Production web apps, admin dashboards, native iOS, native Android, responsive marketing sites, and mobile-first product flows.

Backend product systems

FastAPI services, PostgreSQL schemas, async workers, payment webhooks, push pipelines, tenant scoping, and operational APIs.

Applied AI features

Course-aware assistants, Catholic parenting guidance, school pulse summaries, bounded model context, AI draft workflows, verification gates, and usage governance.

Security and compliance

HttpOnly auth, CSRF, RBAC, audit logs, passkeys, SSO, privacy-first analytics, FERPA/COPPA-aware design, and production hardening.

Product operations

Admin tooling, launch playbooks, release checklists, test suites, observability, role design, content workflows, and support surfaces.

Verification culture

Unit, integration, E2E, iOS, backend, security regression, and workflow tests shaped around real product risk.

Build range

From first product decision to production deployment.

Zobel Solutions is built around practical product ownership. The same work that shapes the UI also shapes the data model, API contract, release path, operational controls, and the things that keep a SaaS product useful after launch.

James Zobel

Founder-led engineering

Direct product judgment, not handoffs between disconnected teams.

I build products where the frontend, backend, mobile clients, security model, deployment workflow, and business logic all need to line up. That is the work behind EduLens, HolyHome, TownSignal, and RustLift.
