Top SchoolBrandon Rice is a hands-on software engineering leader with 14 years of experience building web and distributed systems for supply chain and logistics SaaS, currently serving as Senior Director of Product Development at Blue Yonder following Blue Yonder’s acquisition of Optoro. He combines deep technical fluency—spanning Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, ETL and operational security—with proven people leadership, scaling teams from individual contributors to medium-to-large engineering organizations. His uncommon background in fire and public safety investigations and emergency response informs a disciplined, incident-aware approach to reliability, compliance, and risk. Known for mentoring first-line managers and hiring strong engineering teams, he still enjoys diving into architecture and hands-on development when needed. Off the clock he’s a self-described “professional maker of software and dad jokes,” based in Baltimore.
