Make fragile software dependable.
I help founders and operators stabilize AI-built logic, recover legacy stacks, and ship custom operations boards that can survive real usage.
Engineer-owned
Ryan manages the build directly. No account-manager fog.
Proof before polish
Working surfaces before full-project commitment.
Built for operation
Readable code, handoff docs, and telemetry.

PROOF LEDGER
Real work. Real systems. Real impact.
| Project | Risk Solved | Outcome | Proof |
|---|---|---|---|

Catalog Intelligence MVP
GPT-4o catalog operations
|
Retail catalog data from APIs, affiliate feeds, and manual sources needed normalization, dedupe review, taxonomy mapping, and controlled AI usage. | Live operator console with source-row staging, entity review, GPT-4o analysis, approval workflow, audit trail, export packet, and demo usage caps. | Live MVP → |
|
AutoMarkets Live Marketplace
Production marketplace
|
Live marketplace drift across listings, market data, dealer ingestion, lead attribution, and admin review paths. | Hardened production workflows for public listings, dealer/private visibility, tracking, SEO titles, and milestone review. | Live Site → |
|
MyGradHub MVP
Graduation marketplace
|
Ambiguous graduation-planning concept needed a concrete product shape for families, vendors, admin review, and handoff. | Working MVP demo with social feed, vendor marketplace, role-aware navigation, and founder/admin surfaces. | Original Demo → |
|
MVP Launch Readiness Console
Launch hardening console
|
AI-built MVPs often look close to launch while hiding repo, auth, data, billing, and deployment risk. | A focused triage console for intake, risk register, hardening priorities, evidence, and acceptance checks. | Live Demo → |
METHOD & PROTOCOL
Technical diagnostics to production handoff.
I review your existing codebase, API configurations, and deployment logs to identify memory leaks, race conditions, database index bottlenecks, or unhandled exceptions.
Deliverable: fault map, scope brief, and success criteria.
I build a live, working surface in an isolated sandbox environment to demonstrate how the resolved integration will function under simulated stress before writing final production changes.
Deliverable: clickable proof, data model, and integration plan.
I refactor critical integration layers, implement automated retry fallbacks, secure API keys and headers, enforce strict validation, and deploy via robust CI/CD environments.
Deliverable: production PR, deployment recipe, and validation checks.
I integrate real-time error tracking and telemetry, and construct a lightweight control dashboard so your operational team has absolute visibility 24/7.
Deliverable: alerts, runbook, and operational dashboard.
STANDARDS
Operational rules I build by.
Fixed-Scope Agreements
I scope every project to a binary success criteria. No open-ended billing cycles, no surprise hourly creep. You pay for predefined operational results.
Required
Demos-First Commitment
You see and interact with a live, functional sandbox mockup demonstrating critical mechanics before you commit to signing a full project contract.
Required
Direct Engineering
Zero account managers, project coordinators, or sales buffers. You work directly with Ryan Gonyon—the engineer shaping the architecture, reviewing the code, and managing the implementation.
Required
Built for Handoff
Every deliverable is clean, self-documenting, covered by test suites, and packaged with clear deployment recipes so any engineer can operate it.
Required
OPERATOR
Ryan Gonyon // radical.codes
I help founders and operators make fragile, AI-generated or legacy software dependable. I build stable integration layers, custom control boards, and automated workflows that run continuously.
radical.codes is my public proof surface, not a separate agency or organization. I don't build generic SaaS systems or bloated agency packages; I engineer robust operational tools that eliminate real business risk.
ENGAGEMENT
Currently accepting select high-priority app rescue, dashboard, and AI automation projects.
