What we offer

Digital strategy
The number one thing we get asked to do is "build a thing." The number one thing most of our clients need to do is figure out how they can be successful on the web, then then can figure out what to build. We can help drive your strategy so you can put your money to its best use.
Code
We're programmers! We produce well-tested, solid code in a variety of different languages. We're full-stack by nature, with the ability to deliver in a variety of languages (Javascript, Python, Typescript, PHP).
Analysis
You already have a strategy; you want to know how well it's going! We provide comprehensive digital analyses on everything from how your content is performing to page speed enhancements to what analytics you should be measuring. And no, we will never try to up-sell you on SEO.
Content services
The prettiest website in the world won't do you a bit of good without the words to let people know what's going on. We can write or edit text content for any platform while preserving your unique brand and voice, and our visual storytelling experience means that we go beyond words to provide an eye-catching media experience as well.

Who we are

We are Joan Concilio and Kaitlyn Concilio, the dynamic duo (with some able leadership from Link Pengin) who run Technical Penguins, a woman-owned small business based in the western United States. The name comes from the nonprofit we co-founded, Pengins for Everyone, which gives free stuffed penguins to those in need, and our general love of these adorkable little birds.

    Kaitlyn Concilio

    Co-owner, Principal Technical Consultant

    Kait has been coding websites since the Y2K bug was a real concern, and still remembers dialing into the library computer via terminal to reserve books. She primarily does development and design. In addition to writing software, both in-house and as a consultant, she’s previously worked in print and digital design for newspapers. When not on the computer, she enjoys reading and improv comedy.

    Co-owner

    Nothing makes Joan happier than a well-organized system or process. Joan focuses on workflow analysis, data design, and content writing and editing, with a solid dose of front-end development for funsies. Joan has worked in web development, design and management since 1999 in the journalism, higher education, personal finance and homeschooling spaces – and is one of those weird tech people who likes non-computer hobbies, like reading physical media, kayaking, practicing martial arts and making abstract art. Joan’s hair is rarely the same color two months in a row.

    Link Pengin

    Web Admiral

    Link is one of our many penguins (we call them “pengins”), and among the most … we’ll say “insistent.” She’s a web developer who helped with this site as well as Pengins for Everyone. She insists all her titles (there are many) include “admiral,” because “it’s higher than a captain.” In her spare time, she enjoys hugs.
