About Me

Ransom Pate

Full-stack developer with 9+ years building and maintaining web and mobile applications. I do my best work going deep on a single product ecosystem over the long haul rather than spreading across short engagements.

Backend depth in Laravel — driven by TDD and DDD / Hexagonal Architecture — with frontend work in React and Vue, and mobile in React Native.

Keeping dependencies current matters to me: I push to adopt new Laravel and PHP versions as soon as the dependency graph allows, and lean on PHPStan, Pint, and Rector to keep style, types, and upgrades enforced rather than aspirational.

At Walk2Campus I lead the Propper product suite and own its AWS infrastructure — EC2, RDS, SQS, and S3, including major MySQL version migrations. Small-team reality means coding, architecture, code review, DevOps, and product direction all sit on one plate.

AI tooling is part of how I work day to day; what matters more is architecture, testability, and code that ages well.

Based in Raleigh, NC. Graduate of NC State with a dual B.S. in Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering.
