Lifting Legacy Systems to Modern Standards

CodeHoist helps small and mid-sized teams modernize, stabilize, and scale Java and Spring Boot applications - without downtime or chaos.

About

I’m Brent Brownfield, founder of CodeHoist and a senior backend engineer with over 20 years of experience in Java and Spring Boot systems.

I’ve spent my career rescuing undermaintained, mission-critical applications - the kind that keep businesses running but never seem to get the attention they deserve.

CodeHoist exists to bring structure, performance, and calm to legacy systems so teams can focus on delivering features, not firefighting.
