RTW opens in Reston.
Jeff starts the studio after Booz Allen Hamilton, with a small client base and a practical focus: solve the technical problem, then stay close enough to support it.

We build systems we are willing to support.
Reston Tech Wiz is a senior digital engineering studio in Reston, Virginia. Since 2012, we have built and supported websites, software, dashboards, integrations, AI workflows, and custom systems for clients who need practical technical judgment before and after launch.

Small studio advantage.
Reston Tech Wiz started after founder Jeff Schreibman left Booz Allen Hamilton, where he spent five years as a high-tech Senior Consultant. That background shaped the studio from the beginning: practical engineering, clear communication, and a bias toward systems that keep working after the first version ships.
Since then, RTW has grown carefully. The studio is large enough to handle serious web, software, dashboard, AI, mobile, integration, and support work, but still small enough that clients are not passed through layers of account management before reaching the people who understand the system.
That is the advantage of a focused engineering studio. You get senior technical judgment, direct access, and personal service without the friction of a large agency structure. Reston Tech Wiz brings enterprise-level discipline to digital work that still needs to feel close, practical, and accountable.
That is the whole pitch, really. We are senior engineers who decided to stay small, stay close, and stay in the work.
2015
First production platform ships.
A scheduling system for a DC-area logistics client moves RTW from project work into systems clients rely on every day. Still live today.
2018
The studio becomes a team.
RTW hires its first full-time engineers and moves into Winterport Cluster, expanding the work without turning it into a large-agency model.
2021
Support becomes part of the model.
The retainer approach is formalized so shipped systems have a clear path for updates, fixes, improvements, and real engineering context after launch.
2024
Design and product become part of the build.
RTW adds deeper product and interface work, because serious systems need more than code: they need flows, structure, usability, and scope discipline.
Today
Same standard, broader scope.
RTW now works across web platforms, WordPress, mobile apps, dashboards, AI workflows, integrations, custom systems, signage, hosting, and long-term support.
The working principles behind RTW.
Our values are not decoration. These are the principles that shape how we scope, build, launch, and support the work.
01
Senior people stay close to the work.
The people making the technical decisions stay involved from scope to support.
02
Launch is not the finish line.
Real work starts when users, updates, edge cases, and business changes arrive.
03
Durable beats fashionable.
We choose tools and patterns for the job they need to survive, not the trend they came from.
04
Scope is a form of respect.
Clear scope protects the budget, the timeline, the work, and everyone depending on it.
// Who holds the system
The right people at the messy parts of the system.
Good digital work needs more than implementation. It needs scope, architecture, interface decisions, infrastructure, integrations, and support thinking in the same room.

Big ideas, big energy, and somehow still finds time to ask "quick question?" before changing the whole plan.

Keeps the numbers clean and the rest of us financially supervised. Basically the reason our ideas do not bankrupt us.

Founder note
// from the founder
We strive to take on difficult and challenging projects while provide strong technical solutions. Working with WordPress and mobile applications has been thrilling and the future continues to be bright for these technologies. WordPress in particular is an extremely powerful and flexible platform that is ever improving and extremely customizable. We look forward to taking on any challenge you have for us…

Bring us the technical mess. We’ll shape it into scope.
A fragile site, a manual workflow, a dashboard nobody trusts, an AI idea without guardrails, or a support gap nobody owns. We help turn that kind of mess into scope.
