About us

Two people. 20+ years. Every project.

Blamster is David and Erin Ollenberger, a Canadian owned and operated web development team. We’ve worked together for more than two decades, building websites, web applications and integrations for clients around the world.

Our story

Built one project at a time.

Blamster started the way a lot of good businesses do, with one developer doing great work and clients coming back for more. Over 20+ years, that grew into a partnership: David building, Erin making sure every project runs smoothly and every client is looked after.

We were early to freelance platforms, back when Upwork was still Elance, and built our reputation one project at a time. Today that adds up to 330+ projects delivered, more than $600K earned on Upwork and Top Rated status, with clients across North America and Europe.

We’ve deliberately stayed small. We don’t hand clients off to junior staff and we don’t outsource, so the people you deal with from day one are the people who do the work: David builds your project, and Erin manages it.

How we work today

Same values, new speed.

Software development has changed more in the last few years than in the previous twenty. We’ve embraced AI-powered development as part of our everyday workflow, using it to deliver up to 50% faster while every change is still reviewed by a senior developer.

What hasn’t changed is how we treat clients: honest advice, fixed prices, clear communication and work we’re proud to put our name on.

How we use AI

You work directly with us, and only us. No account managers, no outsourcing and no hand-offs, just personal service from first contact to launch and beyond.

David Ollenberger

Founder, Developer & Designer

David has been building for the web for more than 20 years, and he’s the developer on every Blamster project, so you always talk to the person writing your code. He specialises in Laravel, React, PHP and API development, from complete web applications to complex integrations and AI features. He studied Business Information Technology at NSCC, which gives him a solid understanding of how businesses actually run, not just how code works.

What we believe

What we believe.

Honesty over upselling

If a simpler or cheaper solution will do the job, we’ll say so.

Fixed prices, always

You should know what something costs before you commit to it.

Senior work, start to finish

Every project gets our full experience, however big or small.

Long-term relationships

Many of our clients have worked with us for years, and that’s how we measure success.

Client trust

What our clients say.

“One of the best experiences we've had with a developer and we've worked with many. Looking forward to working with him on future projects”

S Steve Upwork Client

“David is one of the most talented and fast web developers I've ever had the pleasure of working with. He is always responsive in a timely manner and his edits are always spot on with what we're asking.”
