A commerce & technology partner, not a subcontractor.
Devsigh works directly with retail, hospitality, and B2B brands — bringing platform-agnostic engineering and senior technical leadership to businesses that have outgrown a single-platform, single-agency approach.
Built on delivery discipline, run on direct relationships.
Devsigh was founded in 2016 by John Cuthbert, following six years spent working across the Manchester technology scene specialising in ecommerce and leading projects through to successful delivery. Founding Devsigh was the natural next step: the same delivery discipline built up over those years, now applied directly for the brands we work with — rather than passed through a partner agency.
That direct relationship matters. It means the person who scopes your project is the same person who builds it, and the same person you're still talking to next year. No requirements passed hand-to-hand through an account manager, and no subcontracted margin between what you pay and what your engineer sees.
We didn't set out to be a single-platform agency, because most growing businesses don't stay on a single platform either. Adobe Commerce, Shopify, WooCommerce, WordPress, Pimcore — we've built deep, hands-on expertise across all of them, so the platform recommendation you get is based on your business, not our limitations.
"We deliver performance-driven projects — measured by the results they create for the client, not just the code we ship."

16+ years in ecommerce and technology delivery, including six years across the Manchester tech scene before founding Devsigh in 2016.
Three commitments that don't change per project.
We recommend, we don't push
Working hands-on across five platforms means our advice isn't shaped by what we're capable of building. If the right answer for your business is a platform we don't touch, we'll tell you that too.
You brief the person doing the work
There's no account manager relaying your requirements to someone else. The person in your kickoff call is the person writing the code — and the person you're still talking to six months later.
We build for retention, not invoices
We take on a small number of direct clients at a time, deliberately, because our model depends on long-term technical partnerships — not one-off builds we never see again.
A process built around your outcomes, not our convenience.
Discovery
We learn your business, tech stack, and goals before writing a single line of code.
Architecture
We design the right technical approach — platform, integrations, data model.
Build
Iterative delivery with regular client-facing reviews. No black-box sprints.
Launch
Controlled go-live with performance baselining, monitoring, and a clear support plan.
Retain & Optimise
Ongoing retainer support, technical leadership, and iterative improvements.
