Atom Software Pty Ltd

Based in Canberra, Atom Software Pty Ltd is a small software development company serving clients across Australia, including Commonwealth and local government departments, state agencies, private organisations and NGOs. The company is run by two directors, Paul Hopkins and Paul Smith, each with around two decades of experience in software engineering, business analysis and IT consulting, with Smith holding an IT degree from the ANU. Rather than positioning itself as a specialist SEO or marketing firm, Atom Software frames its work around software engineering applied to business problems, working directly and in an agile manner with clients on enterprise-level projects. Services span web application development, software application development, and search engine optimisation, alongside responsive and accessible web development, eCommerce systems, and database design and development. Additional offerings include graphic design, business process improvement, domain name sales, SSL certificate sales, and website hosting. The company describes its approach as going beyond writing software to actively suggesting business process changes and identifying opportunities for automation that clients may not have considered. Its directors bring backgrounds in business analysis, process modelling, systems analysis and design, and database optimisation, applied particularly to enterprise web, desktop and mobile applications across varied industry sectors, with notable experience in government-sector IT projects.
