We build software that compounds in value — not technical debt that slows you down.
Oblivion Solutions is a boutique software consultancy led by Neil Stairmand, with 25 years of hands-on delivery across ERP, eCommerce, payments, and AI-powered tooling. We work with a small number of clients at a time, which means you get senior attention on every engagement — not a junior handed a brief.
We also build our own products, so we understand what it takes to ship and scale software in the real world — not just deliver to a spec.

Why we stand out
No translation layer
You talk directly to the people building your software. Neil leads every engagement — there's no account manager in the middle, no spec lost in translation. What you say is what gets built.
Flexible engagement models
From a one-off audit to a fractional CTO retainer, we structure engagements around what you actually need — not a rigid SOW. Scale up when you're building, pull back when you're not.
AI-augmented delivery
We use AI tooling throughout our development and QA process — not to replace good engineering judgement, but to move faster and catch more. The result is tighter timelines without cutting corners.

What we do
Custom Software Development
We design and build software around the shape of your business — not the other way around. Whether that's a workflow tool that replaces a spreadsheet your team has outgrown, or a full platform built for scale, we start with the outcome and work backwards.
Every engagement includes an AI capability assessment — we identify where automation and LLM integration can give you a meaningful edge, and build it in from day one rather than bolting it on later.
Fractional CTO & Technical Leadership
Not every business needs a full-time CTO. But every business building or running software needs senior technical leadership at some point.
As a fractional CTO, Neil works embedded with your leadership team — setting technical direction, hiring and managing developers, evaluating build vs. buy decisions, and making sure your technology investments are aligned with your commercial goals.
Engagements typically run on a retained basis — a set number of days per month, with continuity and accountability built in. No consultancy fluff. No 200-page strategy decks. Just clear direction and delivery.
Quality Assurance and Testing
Shipping fast means nothing if you're shipping bugs. Our QA process combines manual exploratory testing with automated test suites and AI-assisted defect detection — giving you confidence before every release, not regret after.
We test for what users actually do, not just what the spec says they should do. That means edge cases get caught, regressions get flagged early, and your production environment stays stable.
Integrations
Modern businesses run on dozens of systems — CRMs, ERPs, payment platforms, logistics APIs, data warehouses. When those systems don't talk to each other, your team fills the gaps manually.
We've spent 25 years connecting systems that weren't designed to work together. Whether you need a clean API integration, an event-driven data pipeline, or a full systems audit to untangle years of technical debt, we know where the bodies are buried — and how to deal with them.
Built by us. Used by real businesses.
We don't just consult — we build and operate software products.

About
Get to know us
Our Company
Oblivion Solutions was founded by Neil Stairmand after 25 years in senior software delivery roles — leading teams, shipping platforms, and helping businesses make better technology decisions.
We're not a body-shop and we're not a big agency. We're a small, senior team that takes on a limited number of engagements so we can give each client the attention they deserve. Our clients tend to stay with us — because we're invested in their outcomes, not just the next statement of work.
Alongside our consulting work, we build and operate our own software products — which means we bring a founder's mindset to every client engagement.
