Summary
Ryan Radtke is an owner and principal consultant with a decade of consulting experience building metadata-driven ELT platforms, data lakes, and governance programs across legal, health, finance, and insurance sectors. He blends hands-on engineering—Scala/Spark, Java, Python, Kafka, and cloud IaC—with team leadership, hiring and mentoring data platform and governance roles to turn complex integrations into maintainable, automated systems. Ryan co-architects and maintains STORC, an open-source, pluggable ELT framework, and has repeatedly delivered reusable, audited ingestion and lineage solutions that push configuration back to subject-matter experts. Comfortable toggling between application and data stacks, he favors thrift: pragmatic, well-tested, and automated designs over bespoke or purchased-first solutions. His background as a practicing attorney and litigation technologist gives him an uncommon aptitude for regulatory-sensitive data strategy and translating legal requirements into technical controls. Colleagues rely on him for deep technical detail, practical governance, and teams that learn from failure while shipping reliable production systems.
