We recently had Ryan help us build and test a web app for one of our clients and he did a great job. He’s knows his stuff, and his gentle demeanor paired up with his development knowledge was an asset to our team. We’re looking forward to the opportunity of working with him again.

I had the pleasure of working with Ryan for a few short months. He was onboarded for his front-end development expertise and rolled onto the project to backfill for another senior developer. Joining the team already a few sprints in, Ryan showed himself engaged and a seasoned, strong contributor with excellent communication skills. As the QA Lead, I was particularly appreciative of his timely responses to QA questions on user stories under development. I hope our paths cross again some day!

Ryan took on multiple challenges in a Ruby on Rails project for a client in a very difficult business domain. His work is consistently excellent and his professional representation of our company to our clients was exemplary.

Observed technical work included Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, Docker, Postgres in the health care industry.

Client interaction involving requirements gathering, solution design, demos, and presentation to the client were commonly performed to a high standard.

It's a pleasure to have an opportunity to work with Ryan together on several Rails projects in the last couple years. He helped us to upgrade our existing Rails application from 5.x to 6.x and developed a couple challenging and complex HR hiring applications with some unique requirements from our HR team.

From completely no knowledge of our local system to quickly helping us to develop complex systems to meet our business needs, he is always our go-to person for any issues and questions. We communicate with Slack and Zoom effectively.

I remember clearly one time that we worked together to deploy the new applications into production. The process was not as smooth as expected, but Ryan stayed with me on Zoom troubleshooting remotely for many hours, eventually we got the application into production.

He is an easy person to work with and has a lot of experience with Rails development. Ryan is definitely one the best developers that I have worked with.

I worked with Ryan on a very complex and difficult React project, and he was an excellent member of our development team. It was clear throughout the project that Ryan brought great skill and experience, contributing excellent code every day. As someone newer to the field of web development, I learned a lot from Ryan in everyday communication, in reading his code, and by observing his example on the team. Ryan's hard work and leadership were indispensible to our team and I would recommend him for any company in the future.

Ryan Hageman has been my go to medic for years both on set and in construction. His experience in the film industry gives him the knowledge to react quickly and keep any location or crew safe. He constantly checks in and has always placed me with a great medic when unavailable.. as he is always working.

I've so enjoyed working with his calm and efficient tactics and operates great under pressure. I look forward to working with him in the future.
