Ryan Templeton is a Principal Data Cloud Engineer with 11 years of experience architecting and delivering large-scale data processing and management solutions across industries from telecom to healthcare. Based in Texas and currently on Snowflake’s PolarIS team, he blends deep hands-on development (Java, JavaScript, C#, Snowpark) with solution-selling expertise to turn complex data challenges into production-ready platforms. His background includes leading pre-sales and engineering at Hortonworks and Actian/Pervasive, where he delivered high-performance parallel processing systems that yielded multi-hundred-fold improvements for customers. He’s comfortable across the stack—RDBMS, big data (Hadoop, Hive, HBase, DataRush), BI, and CRM/ERP integrations—and has repeatedly translated messy, large-scale datasets into operational analytics and ML-enabling pipelines. Notably, he has driven industry-focused solutions such as pharma supply chain optimization and DICOM-based pneumonia screening, demonstrating an ability to apply data engineering to real-world clinical and IIoT problems.
