Dylan Pierce is a pragmatic founder and software engineer with 11 years of experience building full‑stack web applications, marketplaces, and trust & safety platforms. He founded Verdict to deliver AI‑powered ID verification for eCommerce and previously led Trust & Security engineering at RVshare, where he designed detection systems that materially reduced fraud by combining conventional and ML techniques. Comfortable across the stack, Dylan has shipped MVPs for startups under tight deadlines and contributed backend integrations to notable open-source projects like Pipedream (implementing Shopify Partner app flows). He favors lean, iterative delivery—turning data‑driven insights about customers and bad actors into prioritized, testable features from sprint planning through deployment. Based in Lakewood, OH, he pairs hands‑on development with product instincts and a habit of “always building” practical tooling (phptoruby.io, getverdict.com).
