Top SchoolRyan Schuster is a senior back-end engineer with 12 years' experience building APIs, data pipelines, and CI/CD infrastructure for production systems across industries from meteorology to health analytics.

Ryan specializes in cloud-native tooling—Docker, Kubernetes, Airflow, Dataflow—and has a strong track record creating reliable pipelines from data warehouses to Redis-backed Flask APIs and BI integrations. Earlier in his career he translated scientific models into operational systems at NOAA, combining Fortran/C number-crunching with modern web stacks and presenting work at AMS.
