About
We believe that you will not find a more capable iPhone developer to work with your business.
BunsenTech, LLC was founded in early 2008 because we knew that we could build great things for the iPhone platform. We discovered very early that it is not enough to understand the hardware and software, but also the user. To that end, we have dedicated ourselves to beautifully crafting applications that have that unique “iPhone feel”.
BunsenTech is not a group of consultants spread around the world, our world does not revolve around scheduling for time differences or international teleconferences to talk about projects.
The devil is in the details. BunsenTech only builds iPhone apps, it is our passion and it is what we excel at. Although it would be easy to suggest that we can build apps for the Palm Pre or for the Blackberry Storm (and we have), this is not our specialty. We know the iPhone, and we think fragmenting our expertise is a dangerous proposition. By concentrating on only the iPhone, we can provide a superior product.
BunsenTech has built a team which is enthusiastic about creating projects that shine on the iPhone. We hold ourselves to a high standard, and cringe at the thought of building an application that is simply a cheap embedded website or a crippled version of a desktop application.
Justin Morgenthau
President & Lead Developer
Justin is the founder and president of BunsenTech, LLC. Justin acquired a taste for engineering while apprenticing in his grandfather’s machine shop, gaining a strong background in mechanical design and fabrication. Justin’s formal background is in computer engineering, with over a decade of experience designing and programming embedded software for both the aerospace and telecommunications industries.
Being both an engineer and a musician, Justin tends to simultaneously apply analytical and creative thinking processes to a problem, often generating uniquely elegant solutions.
Justin’s experience on safety-critical government programs has given him a critical eye for security and safety related software issues, which is evidenced in his robust, high-quality designs.
Jonathan Sweet
Creative Director
Jonathan is a curious dabbler, graphic artist, and interface designer. Although he attended school for film and broadcast communications, his real love was always exploring the boundaries of art and interactions with computers. Naturally he has spent many years building, designing, and managing web projects.
Although an artist at heart, he has also been drawn to the logic of machines and has developed strong skills in C, PHP, SQL, and JavaScript. He uses these tools to create a bridge between programmers and artists, creating products that are functional, intuitive, and inspiringly beautiful.
Made in the USA
BunsenTech is based in Hartford, CT, halfway between New York City and Boston. All staff have excellent communication skills and are just a phone call away. That $13/hr developer in Mumbai may seem like a great idea until you realize that no number of off-hour conference calls will get the product you want, when you want it.
The BunsenTech difference: Artists and Engineers
They say that infinite monkeys on infinite keyboards could crank out the works of Shakespeare. This, however is a lousy way to develop software. That’s why BunsenTech’s team is comprised of experienced and talented engineers and artists, not a bunch of code-monkeys. This isn’t just a day-to-day job for us, we are truly invested in making the best possible product.
There is no doubt that the core of any development project is the code, however at BunsenTech the process starts and ends with the look and interactions of the interface. Before a single line of code is written, we carefully design the user interface for an application. Our artists and user-interface guru build mockups and a specification outlining how the user will interact with the application. These documents are approved by our customer before coding starts, and are used as a guide during the software development process. Before the application is considered complete, it returns to the artist and UI expert for review, making sure the application is intuitive and pixel-perfect.
Our engineering staff prides themselves on producing elegant solutions for difficult problems. Audio signal processing, data acquisition, GPS, image manipulation, and interfacing to external devices are within our capabilities. We can take your “impossible” problem, and give you a creative, technical solution. It’s not magic, but we want our customers wonder “how did they do that?”
BunsenTech Partners
We believe in the right tool for the right job. We think that the almost single-minded pursuit of being great iPhone developers is an asset, but we are only one tool in the toolbox. We have a variety of partners to assist us when needed.
BunsenTech has established relationships with PR firms, advertising agencies, hardware engineering consultants, musicians, artists, web development companies, and even other iPhone developers.
