Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Foong is a Senior Software Engineer in the Greater Seattle Area with seven years of experience building full-stack, data-driven applications and APIs. He has progressed from data analytics roles into engineering positions at companies like RAPP, Riva, Credible, and TED, delivering systems spanning serverless Lambda APIs, DynamoDB/S3 storage, Stripe billing integrations, and OAuth authentication. Ryan combines a strong data background—creating real-time dashboards and ETL migrations—with hands-on engineering such as setting up CI/CD pipelines and fine-grained authorization in production. He enjoys learning and experimenting: his side project recreating a shell using Electron, React, and TypeScript shows a penchant for tooling and UX, and he’s actively sharpening algorithm and Java skills via coursework. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic migrations and measurable performance improvements, like consolidating database tables to reduce latency and improve user experience. Outside work he’s a long-time musician, a detail that informs his collaborative, iterative approach to problem solving.
