About

Skilled Software Engineer with 10+ years of development experience. My expertise lies in Node.js (Javascript) backend development (4+ years) and .NET (C#) backend development (2+ years). I excel at finding creative solutions for complex problems and building scalable distributed systems. I'm also experienced in Java, C++, and TypeScript. Having worked at top-notch organizations like Microsoft, eBay, and Harman, I have gained expertise in multiple sectors of the tech industry. I am confident that I can bring a diverse range of skills to the table. Now the interesting part; I am Ryan. I am approximately 6 feet tall with a head full of dreams and some software development expertise. Here’s what you should know about me: I am an immensely positive person who thinks life is full of possibilities. I also get excited by the idea of learning or creating something new. I like to make a difference and add value. My dream is to create something someday that adds value to the lives of more than a billion people. Productivity is my mantra; I am a nerd at heart who loves standup comedy and superhero movies. If Thor walks into a comedy club and delivers a set, rogue bears wouldn’t be able to stop me from attending. I have endless love for playing sports and my personal favourite is table tennis. Once upon a time, I could spend an entire night smashing away at a TT table. Recently, I have taken up badminton.
