Ryan Cassidy

Jr. Software Engineer

Hartford, Connecticut

I turn product ideas into working software with full-stack development, AI tooling, cloud infrastructure, and fast iteration around new models and platform capabilities.

Projects and builds

A focused look at applications, case studies, and experiments that show how I approach product engineering.

About

Turning ideas into real software.

Graduated from UConn in 2024 with a B.S. in Business Data Analytics and a minor in Mathematics. I spend my time building full-stack applications, experimenting with AI-native development workflows, and turning practical ideas into usable software across web, mobile, automation, and data-heavy projects.
