The Drunken Gecko is an independent software studio focused on building practical, high-quality software products and developer tooling.
Founded by Dayton Jones, our mission is simple:
Build useful things. Solve real problems. Ship software we're proud of.
We specialize in creating software and services that help engineers, operators, and businesses work smarter through automation, cloud-native technologies, and AI.
Applications designed to solve real-world problems with a focus on reliability, usability, and developer experience.
Intelligent assistants, workflow automation, and AI-enhanced products that augment human capabilities rather than replace them.
Infrastructure, deployment platforms, and operational tooling built around modern cloud-native practices.
Tools that eliminate repetitive work, improve reliability, and help teams move faster.
Areas of interest include:
- DevOps & Platform Engineering
- Cloud Architecture
- Infrastructure as Code
- Kubernetes & Containers
- Automation & Orchestration
- Python Tooling
- AI / LLM Integrations
- Developer Experience
- Security & Reliability Engineering
Open source is an important part of what we do.
