Summary
Ryan Kopec is a Software Development Engineer with nine years of experience blending machine learning research and production software across aerospace, startups, and cloud platforms. With a BS in Mechanical Engineering (minor in Electrical Engineering) and an MS in Computer Science focused on ML/Computer Vision from Georgia Tech, he builds practical ML and vision systems and ships reliable code in Python, C++, and web stacks. He has delivered algorithms and tooling at Lockheed Martin and CVision AI, taught AI coursework as a graduate TA, and now develops scalable services at AWS. Ryan pairs hands-on model development (self-driving and ML nanodegrees) with systems engineering instincts from controls and hardware-adjacent work, and he still coaches tennis—applying the same patience and iterative improvement to mentoring and product delivery.
