Summary
Ryan Cady is a Senior Software Engineer based in Boulder, Colorado with a decade of professional experience building full-stack web applications, primarily in the LAMP stack. He blends backend PHP/Laravel expertise with modern front-end work in Vue and React, often shipping SPA frontends that consume his own JSON REST APIs. Comfortable and productive in the Linux command line, he also architects integrations across AWS (EC2, RDS, S3) and writes Python scrapers to populate MySQL-backed systems. As a founder of CadyMade and Liaison LLC, he pairs client-facing product thinking with hands-on development and vendor management. Currently at Bonfyre, he continues to evolve his toolkit while favoring pragmatic, maintainable solutions. Beyond code, he brings an operator’s mindset from running small businesses and maintaining hosting environments, which helps him bridge development and operations.
