Torbjörn Gyllebring
CTO at Hubert
Ryan's passion is evident from the instant you approach the topic of the web and frontend development.
He will keep you up to date with what the latest trends are, what technology you should be considering and will fluidly mix mentoring and directing you towards the relevant resources for your own studies. Given the opportunity and encouragement he will autonomously seek solutions that are both grounded in common practices from big players but tailored to your context and constraints. Ryan's keen sense of "what's hot" doesn't hinder him from digging in and getting his hands dirty modernising legacy applications, paying down technical debt and scaling back on ambition to hit deadlines.
I've learnt a lot from Ryan, enjoyed countless discussions with him, seeing him both stand firm when needed and change his mind or accept circumstances when appropriate. He'll be prompt in giving you feedback if asked and good at both requesting and receiving the same.
