About

A Senior Engineering Team, Not an Agency Pyramid

Breezy Sites is two senior engineers with 40 years of combined experience. When you hire us, the people on this page do the work.

TL;DR

Breezy Sites is a senior engineering team founded in 2023, providing Website Operations on any platform. The two founders have worked together for over a decade on shared production systems, and the numbers behind the trust bar are real engagements: 99.9% uptime on a production insurance platform since 2019, a 13-year application portfolio spanning 25+ custom applications, and multiple zero-data-loss AWS migrations.

Who runs Breezy Sites?

Two people, and they're the ones who answer your tickets.

SS

Steve Soto

Founder / CTO

An executive technology leader whose career spans four decades of building, scaling, and stabilizing technology organizations: CTO roles across startups, growth-stage companies, and investment-backed organizations, with repeated engagements stabilizing fragmented technology environments and preparing systems for acquisition. His operating rules are the company's: technology must tie to revenue, cost, or risk; transparency comes before solutions. Steve founded Breezy Sites in 2023 as the platform for that discipline at small-business scale.

Xavier Emerson

Director of Technology

A senior solutions architect who has built and maintained production web platforms for US clients since 2013, across insurance, fitness, healthcare, e-commerce, and business operations. His work runs from custom WordPress and PHP/CodeIgniter applications through AWS infrastructure to the AI-era layer: AEO, GEO, schema strategy, and generative search readiness, applied on production platforms rather than in blog posts. Several of his client relationships have run continuously for 6 to 13 years.

Why should you believe the numbers on our homepage?

Because each one maps to a specific engagement we can describe, even where client confidentiality means we don't name it.

How we work

Long tenures, plain language, and no work we wouldn't defend in writing. The founders have collaborated for over a decade on shared production systems, including a ten-year IoT fitness platform one founded and the other engineered. That history is why the service pages read the way they do: fixed fees, documented plans, and an audit that tells you the truth even when the truth is "your stack is fine."

Straight answers

About Breezy Sites: questions

Who actually does the work if I hire Breezy Sites?

The two engineers on this page. Specialist contractors join for capacity when a project needs them, under our architecture and review. There's no junior bench your project quietly lands on.

Where is Breezy Sites located?

The team works remotely with US clients: one founder in California, one senior architect who has worked US-remote since 2013. Remote isn't a compromise here; it's how these engagements have run for over a decade.

Why don't you name your clients?

Confidentiality, by policy. We publish the verifiable shape of the work: uptime figures, engagement lengths, migration outcomes, and we'll discuss specifics under NDA when an engagement warrants it.

How long have the founders worked together?

Over a decade, across shared production systems, including a ten-year IoT fitness platform one founded and the other engineered end to end. Breezy Sites formalizes a collaboration that already existed.

Is Breezy Sites a design agency?

No. We're an engineering team: operations, performance, migrations, AI launch support, and AI search readiness. When a project needs design, we work with your designer or bring one in, but nobody here will sell you a redesign.

What does "40 years combined" actually mean?

The two founders' senior engineering careers added together, and both are still hands-on. It's on the homepage because it's checkable: both careers are public on LinkedIn.

Do you take on clients outside the US?

The client base is US-centered and the working hours are built around US time zones. Elsewhere is possible when the engagement fits; ask.
