Ryan holds two roles that sit alongside each other. As a founder, he owns and runs ZIG and Project Tracker — a suite of intelligence-layer platforms built for the AEC industry, with Bailey Engineering as the anchor tenant. This dual position is intentional: you build better tools when you're on the hook for using them every day.
As Head of Intelligence Engineering at Bailey, he runs point on the firm's deployment of those platforms and builds the data pipelines, predictive systems, and AI and SEO infrastructure that make "intelligence-driven" a working capability rather than a tagline.
He bridges business vision and technical execution, translating what leadership needs into systems that run without them. His operating principle: a problem well stated is a problem half solved. His stated goal: to automate himself out of a job.
Ryan publishes land-use intelligence research at Dev.IQ.
