Havklar: Maritime Staffing Website
A website for a maritime staffing company run by working seafarers, with one way in for shipping companies that need crew and one for seafarers looking for work.
What it is
Havklar AS supplies experienced maritime personnel to shipping companies, for short and long assignments. The company is based in Bodø and run by seafarers who still work at sea. I designed and built its website.
What I built
A simple site with two ways in. Shipping companies that need crew describe the job in one form, and seafarers looking for work register in another and can attach their CV. Behind it is a password-protected admin page where Havklar goes through the requests, previews the CVs and adds notes. The rest is about the company: who runs it, what it values, its terms, privacy and company details, all in Norwegian.
How it runs
The site is built with Astro and Tailwind. In October 2026 I moved it from AWS (Amplify, Lambda and S3) to a single Cloudflare Worker that serves both the pages and the API behind the forms.
