About us
Deliberately small. Intentionally direct.
Pacific Net West was founded by me, Jonathan Barnes, a PhD physicist and systems engineer who has spent his life working with technology and the internet. The company is small on purpose: clients work directly with me, and the systems are designed, built, and operated by the same person who answers your email.
What I believe
You own your stuff
Your data, your domains, your content. Everything we build for you is documented and portable. If you ever want to leave, you take it all with you.
Private by default
No data sales, no unauthorized use, no quiet repurposing of your content, not used to train AI models. Your information is used to run your services. Nothing else.
Real hardware, real encryption
Bare-metal servers with full-disk encryption, not anonymous slices of someone else's cloud.
Honest scoping
Transparent pricing and realistic estimates. If a project isn't worth doing, you'll hear that too.
The short version
An engineer with deep experience, running real hardware, who treats your data like it's yours, because it is. If that's the kind of partner you want for your technology, let's talk.
