Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Mcinteer is a Lead Engineer with over a decade building mission-critical platform infrastructure at Xero, owning services that handle 700M+ requests per day and underpin the entire product. He combines hands-on engineering, team building, and strategic architecture, having served as IC, team lead, people leader, and principal engineer to align cross-divisional platform capabilities. Ryan focuses on reliability-first decisions for foundational systems, coaching senior engineers to deliver sustainable, high-confidence releases. He’s drawn to smaller, faster environments where he can reconnect with product and shape engineering culture, particularly around AI-augmented development. Outside work he applies his engineering rigor to predictive modeling for horse racing, sharpening his instincts for feature engineering, data pipelines, and decision-making under uncertainty. Open to senior IC or engineering management roles (remote/hybrid), he brings scale experience but misses the early-stage energy.
