Ryan Bender is a full-stack software engineer with five years of experience building customer-facing features for large automotive platforms, currently contributing to Autotrader’s core Shopping team at Cox Automotive. He shifted into software after a background in digital strategy and analytics, bringing a product-minded perspective from roles at WarnerMedia and Dentsu Creative where he designed data-driven campaigns and immersive digital experiences. Trained through Codesmith’s intensive software engineering program, he pairs front-end UI work (including open-source Vue contributions) with backend integrations to ship polished, user-centric features. Based in Long Beach, he’s comfortable navigating enterprise codebases and cross-functional stakeholders, and his hybrid marketing-engineering background gives him an edge turning business requirements into measurable engineering outcomes.
