Hi, I'm Ryan

I’m a Support Engineer with a passion for tackling technical challenges, backed by a broad foundation in IT support—from applications to infrastructure and servers. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed working with both end-users and behind-the-scenes systems, gaining a deep appreciation for what makes technology tick on both sides.


Now, I’m excited to take the next step in my career toward DevOps or Site Reliability Engineering, where I can dive deeper into automation, coding, and creating efficient, resilient systems. I’m currently seeking remote opportunities where I can bring my hands-on experience and enthusiasm for problem-solving to a team that values innovation and reliability."

Featured Projects

Adit

Secure peer to peer command line tool for transferring files using webrtc.

Adit

Adit is a command-line interface (CLI) tool built with Go that enables users to securely send files to one another over a WebRTC connection. This project is inspired by Magic Wormhole, a similar tool built in Python.

The file sender makes a websocket connection to a relay server, where the phrase is automatically generated and is the reference point for exchanging webRTC information. When the receiver connects using the phrase and information is exchanged, the file is transferred directly between the sender and receiver.

Features
  • End-to-End Encryption: Ensures files are securely transmitted between sender and receiver
  • Peer-to-Peer Transfer: Utilizes WebRTC to create a direct connection between devices
  • Cross-Platform Support: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux systems
  • Automatic Deployment: Server deploys automatically to AWS using Github workflows and Terraform

Site Monitor

Site Monitor is designed simply to help users monitor the availability and performance of their websites. At its core, the application regularly checks if specified websites are online and operational, sending alerts if any site goes down. This can be particularly useful for small business owners, developers, or anyone managing personal or client websites who want peace of mind that their sites are consistently accessible.

Features
  • User Authentication: Firebase user authentication for secure accounts
  • Incident history: Incident history is preserved to help understand trends
  • Notifications: Webhook notifications to alert in real-time to a failure

Chat Application

This chat application was built for team-based communication, particularly in a support context, similar to the environments used by companies like Just Eat or Amazon.

It enables real-time messaging and status updates, ideal for application support or customer service teams. The backend is structured as a set of microservices written in Go, deployed with Kubernetes and Helm charts. The frontend is built with vanilla JavaScript and styled using Bootstrap.

Features
  • Real-time messaging with WebSockets
  • Live team and user status updates using Server-Sent Events
  • Microservices architecture deployed with Kubernetes and Helm charts
  • Simple and clean interface using vanilla JavaScript and Bootstrap
