Dean Radcliffe is a seasoned Software Engineering Manager and senior full-stack engineer with 18 years of experience building robust web platforms and leading teams from greenfield rewrites to enterprise-scale systems. Based in Chicago, he blends deep technical hands-on expertise in JavaScript, Ruby on Rails, React, and distributed services with a track record of coaching and curriculum-building from roles as a bootcamp lead and engineering mentor. At UnitedHealthcare he transitioned from senior engineer to manager, applying product-minded engineering to healthcare systems, and previously led major UI/service rewrites at G2 and consulting engagements for clients like Discovery and Shutterstock. He is passionate about teaching and community—having grown meetup communities, presented at conferences, and contributed open-source tooling—and brings a rare mix of pragmatic architecture, developer empathy, and an educator’s patience. Underneath the technical resume he’s driven by math, logic, music and healthy living, which informs a systematic yet human approach to problem solving and team culture.
