Bio
Jack Spivak
I've had the pleasure of working with Bryan directly on several complex data projects over the past year. And as SME on his team efforts, it has been my privilege to experience his leadership style, dedication, collaboration and success. If you are just looking for a recommendation, its simple: Hire him. Don't hesitate. He rocks! His skill, tenacity and teamwork improves everything he touches. He owns his work, cares deeply and goes "above and beyond" to deliver results. Bryan is an exemplary teammate and human being. He is always positive and ready to help. He asks the right questions to move a discovery or debug forward. He brings his ability to think outside the box and come up with innovative solutions. He solves problems - and stays laser focused on action steps needed to implement successfully. His curiousity is palpable. He's always ready to learn new technologies and keep up with industry trends and best practices. I've personally experienced his ability to onboard quickly and collaborate effectively within a complex cloud-based development environment. He is knowledgable and committed to Agile methodology. He brings full-stack skills and experience. Fluent in SQL and other languages. Effective and consistent in his use of Git, ETL, Dagster, DBT, S3 and JIRA-like requirement and change-management tooling. Cooperative and precise employing both standard procedures and developing/documenting new ones. We all know that great teams are not built by luck. It does play a part. If you are looking for a developer, team lead, data architect, DevOps engineer, business liaison... Your team would be lucky to have Bryan as a member.

I had the privilege of working with Bryan on my team for about a year. I was initially impressed with Bryan's extensive experience and his positive attitude. When he joined Lifespark, he quickly became a high impact teammate, often working to enable others' work while still executing well on his own responsibilities. Collaborating and pairing with Bryan is a joy and it's awesome to work with someone who leans into problems with curiosity first, instead of frustration. At Lifespark, he worked extensively in Snowflake and with dbt and Dagster to enable the flow of data from our partners to clinicians who relied on up to date information to deliver excellent patient care. I am highly confident that he will be a highly valued teammate wherever he goes!
