Who we are
Rodney
Use case evaluation, logistics, infrastructure
Recognizing that the average person holds more computing power in their hand than many industries leverage in their internal processes, Rodney started a company called REHV in 2014. It specialized in compliance inspection software for professional motor sports. With REHV, technicians could move away from traditional inspection methods that involved paper checklists on clipboard to a real time tablet-based system.
While REHV was developed exclusively for the racing community, it evolved naturally into Arkay Solutions, which offers TechWorks software to a wider commercial and industrial audience.
As the head of Arkay’s business side, Rodney sees TechWorks as a way for commercial enterprises to leverage all the power of a tablet-based system, with real time information flow and widely dispersed reporting.
Kyson
System architect and lead developer
Kyson wrote the first prototype of TechWorks in a midwestern thunderstorm—under a canopy on the infield of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during the weekend leading up to the Indy 500. One year later, he was back at the same track providing on-site support for TechWorks beta.
With a background in embedded software development and robotics, Kyson initially started TechWorks as an opportunity to explore web technologies. Among the reasons he loves this work are the opportunity to tinker with new ideas, and the look of wonder on a user's face when they see the TechWorks "magic" for the first time.
Currently, Kyson works with users to define a "blueprint" of the features they need. He takes those concepts, decomposes them into their fundamental pieces and then starts building.
