Summary
Erik Ratcliffe is a full-stack software engineer in Portland, Oregon with 11 years of experience building enterprise and customer-facing web applications using React, Java (Spring/Hibernate/Thymeleaf), and a broad set of front-end technologies. He has delivered solutions across banking, transportation, and agency environments—currently developing React and Java systems at U.S. Bank after building internal Java EE reporting, ASP.NET MVC enterprise sites for ODOT, and numerous agency-era responsive web projects. Comfortable across cloud, database, and DevOps toolchains (AWS/Linode, MSSQL/Oracle/DB2, Jenkins, Maven, Git), he pairs practical backend rigor with polished front-end design sensibilities from a long freelance and design background. Notably, he mixes strong legacy-system experience (WebSphere, RAD, Struts) with modern stacks and a designer’s eye—so he thinks about UX as well as scalability. Outside work he’s as likely to be debugging a layout as he is to wax poetic about homemade hummus, which hints at a playful attention to craft and iteration.
