While in VFA-11 The Red Rippers, Ryan deployed aboard the USS Enterprise in 2012 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (CVN-65) and again in 2015 aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) in support of Operation Inherent Resolve over Iraq & Syria.

In 2020, Ryan left BAE Systems to help start Quantum Generative Materials (GenMat), a vertically integrated material science company using ML/AI to reliably predict the atomic structure of material through the algorithmic manipulation of matter.
