Ciaran Winters
Web Designer & Developer · Dublin & Wicklow
MEng Electronic Engineering
I hold a Masters in Electronic Engineering — which means when I build your website, I'm not guessing. I understand performance, structure, and the technical decisions that determine whether a site actually works or just looks like it does.
Most web designers learn a drag-and-drop tool and call themselves developers. I came from the other direction — deep technical knowledge applied to web design. That's why my sites load faster, rank better on Google, and hold up long-term.
I build custom websites for Irish businesses across Dublin and Wicklow. One price, one week, and you own everything when it's done.
My Journey
The Foundation
Masters in Electronic Engineering
Built a deep technical understanding of complex systems — precision, problem-solving, and making things that actually work under pressure. That mindset goes into every website I build.
The Career
Senior Field Service Engineer
Spent years solving real-world technical problems on the ground — diagnosing faults, delivering results, and being accountable for the outcome. Not just theory. Real engineering, real pressure.
The Shift
Engineering Applied to Web Design
Took the same technical rigour and applied it to building websites. Where most designers guess, I understand exactly what I'm building and why — and the results show it.
Now
Built by Winters
Helping Irish businesses get online properly — without the agency price tag, the wait, or the runaround. Fast, honest, and built to last.
