“It’s rare to come across an engineering manager who is also an incredible software engineer and a remarkable mentor like Ryan.
I was particularly impressed with Ryan’s exceptional organization and delegation skills. He put together a new team who then became one of the top performing teams in the company in no time! ... With a calm personality, he is a thoughtful and empathic leader who is always there for his team.
As a team member or a manager, Ryan earns my highest recommendation.”
