Become a sponsor to James S. Bayley
I design engineering tools at the intersection of software, design psychology, and craft. My goal is simple: build with intention, reduce friction, and help people do meaningful, focused work. This philosophy shapes everything I create.
I develop open-source utilities and native toolchains for Structural Engineers, write about Engineering Experience at Optimal Engineer , and publish Handmade Technology for AEC developers. I also serve as Vice-Chair on the Digital Workflows & Computational Design Panel at the Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE) .
