The engineer you'll actually work with.
I'm Amanda Yonce, a software engineer and the founder of Second Nature Software. I help founders turn AI-built prototypes into products they can confidently sell.
Background
Production software is my day job.
I've spent 10 years building and maintaining software that real people depend on, including real-time platforms where reliability isn't optional. Much of that work has been the part users never see — authentication, payments, and data that has to stay correct under real load — which is exactly what a prototype needs shored up before it can take real customers.
AI builders have made it possible for anyone with a good idea to ship a working app. What they haven't changed is what it takes to run one safely: secure data, reliable payments, and code that can grow. That's the gap I started Second Nature Software to close.

What you can expect
One engineer, start to finish
No account managers or hand-offs. The person who reviews your code is the person who fixes it.
Honest assessments
If something doesn't need fixing, I'll tell you. If I'm not the right fit, I'll say so.
Clear communication
Regular updates in plain language, and a direct line when something comes up.
Based in Camden, South Carolina. Working with founders and small teams everywhere.
