Fullstack software engineer, husband, cat-dad
I write clean code, make friends with everyone, and love my life.
I'm a fullstack software engineer. I started my coding journey in 2008 by building desktop apps in visual basic. I took a hiatus from coding for a while and then picked it up again in 2019 by learning Python.
In early 2020 I shifted towards web development. I worked as a software engineer for a startup starting at the end of 2020 and into 2021. I attended and graduated from a coding bootcamp, General Assembly to supplement my knowledge & skills. Today, I work as a Full Stack Software Engineer for HireArt.
My strongest assets for a development team are my ability to work well with people of any personality type, do test-driven-development, and design system architecture.
Here are some of my proficiencies
| Languages | Technologies | Strengths |
|---|---|---|
| Javascript & TypeScript | React | Analytical reasoning |
| Python | Test-driven-development | Learning on the fly |
| Ruby | Mocha/Chai & Jest | Personability |
| SQL | Django | Clear communication |
| Klingon | Node | Writing |
Here are some of my old projects I've worked on:
Disclaimer - The database these projects are using is no longer being paid for and Heroku has ceased their free plan, so projects with heroku deployments and MongoDB databases no longer have functioning deployments, though the code is still visible.Here’s what previous work managers have said about Ryan:
Meridian 3D – CAD Manager
"Ryan Scarbel is a high energy person who is constantly striving to get results and is never satisfied unless he has investigated as many options as time permits. He has very pleasant inter-personal skills and understands the importance of contact building and long term relationships. On a personal level he was a great workmate and someone I would greatly enjoy working with in the future."
Recruiter.com – Founder & CEO
"Ryan has done a lot of direct client work, marketing and sales outreach through Hubspot, marketing automation sequences, and partner calls. A bright and ambitious guy with technical skills and very strong communication and presentation, which is rare. This is someone you can put in front of clients and not think twice."
UNCG – Technology Support Analyst
"His attention to detail and ability to learn on the fly has made him invaluable to us over the never ending periods of transition in the ITS computer labs. Ryan has such a pleasant demeanor about him and his customer service and technical skills are some of the best I have seen in my 15 years serving as Computer Lab Manager at UNCG. He is both dependable and always ready to go the last mile"
