The TaylorMade 'A-Team'

The 'Seal Team Six' of Software Development - Developing Your Imagination


The TaylorMade “A-Team”

“The best programmers are up to 28 times better than the worst programmers… they are the biggest bargains in the software field.”

— Robert Glass, Facts and Fallacies of Software Engineering

At TaylorMade Software Inc., we believe the difference between good software and game-changing software comes down to people. Over three decades, founder J.T. Taylor has assembled a network of world-class engineers, scientists, and technologists who consistently deliver at the highest level.

Our story began in the wild frontier of the dot-com era—building first-of-their-kind platforms that became proving grounds for today’s leaders: DeskClick.com (the first online food ordering system—years before Uber Eats or DoorDash, led by a VP from Amazon), DigiZap (the first Microsoft Agent development kit that let you talk to your computer like Star Trek, long before Siri), Scour.com (a pioneering P2P exchange that blazed the trail later made famous by Napster), and Telecom Terminal Systems (one of the earliest online airline reservation systems).

What emerged is not just a team but an elite unit of cross-trained professionals—engineers who thrive under pressure, bring overlapping and complementary skill sets, and solve problems others consider impossible. Each member is a proven leader: self-sufficient, collaborative, and battle-tested across startups, enterprises, and mission-critical programs.

Today, this 20+ member “A-Team” is more than a group of developers—it’s a Dream Team of dreamers and doers who don’t just build software. We develop your imagination.
