02 / ABOUT
A mechanic’s mindset,
applied to technology.
I’m David Butts—the builder behind ReaperTech. I’ve spent years diagnosing difficult problems, learning systems from the inside out, and finding solutions that work under real-world pressure.
That same approach drives my work in IT: understand the system, identify the actual failure, fix it cleanly, and document it so it stays fixed. ReaperTech is the next chapter—bringing together infrastructure, networking, automation, electronics, and a lifetime of hands-on problem solving.
“Built honestly with integrity” isn’t marketing copy. It’s the standard.
