Chicago software development — for the city that takes software seriously.
Chicago's B2B software culture runs deep. Grubhub, Braintree, Groupon, and Morningstar all started here. RCB Software works with Chicago companies building the next generation of business software — fixed-price, senior developer.
Chicago-based company that needs a senior software developer for a defined project
Chicago is a B2B city. The dominant software use cases are: enterprise sales tools, financial technology, supply chain and logistics, healthcare platforms, and professional services software.
Chicago's development culture: Chicago companies expect professional engagements. They've worked with consultants, law firms, and accountants who provide fixed-fee services. Software development that uses hourly billing without a ceiling is unusual in Chicago's professional culture.
The right development partner for Chicago: A senior developer who communicates professionally, works within a defined scope, delivers on time, and provides fixed-price contracts — the same standard held for any professional service firm.

Why Fixed-Price Matters Here
Chicago's business culture understands and expects fixed-fee engagements. Software is no different.
Questions, answered.
Yes. Enterprise internal tools and business applications for mid-market Chicago companies are a significant part of the portfolio. The engagement model works for both.
