Ryan Kite – Sr. Software Engineer @zoro

Greetings! Thank you for stopping by. I’m delighted to have you here.

With over a decade dedicated to crafting digital products and services, my journey has spanned the evolution of technology. It all started with interactive design and front-end engineering, gradually leading me to the depths of back-end and full-stack software development.

Amidst the ever-changing landscape of technology, my heart lies in the world of software engineering and the creation of digital solutions. From enhancing front-end aesthetics to orchestrating microservices, I find purpose in the diverse dimensions of this field.

As a Sr. Full Stack Software Engineer – Technical Lead at Zoro, I have the privilege of driving user engagement through innovative components, microservices, and SEO strategies. Zoro’s embrace of Vue and Python adds an exciting layer to my work, allowing me to merge creativity with cutting-edge technology. Additionally, I lead an SEO Product Team, further deepening my connection with digital strategies, all within the framework of agile development methodologies.

My technical repertoire includes proficiency in Python, Django, Vue.js, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, empowering me to craft efficient and user-friendly digital experiences. I also work extensively on AWS and GCP platforms, harnessing their power for scalable and reliable solutions.

A continuous mode of learning fuels my journey. I’m committed to partnering with teams, growing as a professional, and creating products that are not only innovative but also impactful and beneficial.

My prior experience as a Sr. Software Engineer at Divinsa (WholesaleBackup) adds depth to my journey.
