The usual suspects
If your business runs on heroic spreadsheet gymnastics, you are not alone.
Most small businesses and nonprofits don't have a broken team — they have a stack of tools that grew sideways. Here are the symptoms we untangle every week.
- ✕Manual weekly reporting that eats every Friday
- ✕Copy/paste workflows between five different apps
- ✕Disconnected tools that don't talk to each other
- ✕A website that looked great in 2017
- ✕Data nobody trusts (so nobody uses it)
- ✕Repetitive admin tasks that nobody owns
- ✕Mystery logins from a contractor in 2019
- ✕AI curiosity with no idea where to start

Local Tech Strategy
Decide what to fix first, what tools to keep, and what tech debt is quietly eating your lunch.

Diagnose the Chaos
We look at your tools, workflows, data, website, and pain points. No judgment — just a clear map of what's actually happening.

Make It Usable
We document, train, and simplify so your team can actually use what was built — long after we're done.

About
Senior database & analytics consultant who actually likes the messy stuff.
I'm Joe — founder of Coos Tech Ninja. For 15+ years I've worked with SQL, Python, automation, dashboards, cloud data systems, and business intelligence for teams ranging from scrappy startups to enterprise data orgs.
I started Coos Tech Ninja because small businesses and nonprofits in Southern Oregon deserve the same caliber of technical help that big companies pay top dollar for — without the jargon, the upsells, or the 90-slide deck.
My approach is practical, direct, and human. If something is broken, I want to understand it, fix it cleanly, and leave you with something your team can actually run.
Or as we like to say around here: "Taking the SH out of IT."
