Summary
Dean Rivers is a software engineer based in Jersey City with eight years of professional experience and a background in mechanical engineering from Stevens Institute of Technology. Currently at UBS, he builds production software with a full-stack focus that includes React.js, React Native, and Python, while also bringing strong multimedia and creative tooling skills (Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects, Blender) that inform polished UI and front-end experiences. His early roles in project engineering, estimating, and PMO work give him a practical, deadline-driven approach to delivery and cross-functional collaboration. Comfortable bridging technical and non-technical stakeholders, he has experience maintaining complex documentation and operational systems from internships through enterprise projects. Dean’s profile reflects a hybrid maker: a developer who blends visual storytelling and engineering to create user-friendly interfaces and clear product workflows. Reachable at deanrivers2@gmail.com and deanrivers.io, he combines hands-on coding with creative design instincts not obvious from a typical software resume.
