Ben West
Managing Developer
Ben tends to think of time as a limited commodity and has his own style for living life to the fullest. He’s going to ask you hard questions and he has the same kind of high expectations for everyone that he has for his staff and his two kids. Ben wrote PHP for 10 years, but his love affair with JavaScript goes back to 1998 when he was first writing it for Windows Scripting Host building desktop automation and data-management. He switched hard to Ruby on the backend in 2013 and really kicked off the current iteration of his professional journey to being more focused on agency work rather than freelance. He’s also a competent Python developer, can write C++, and CSS.
Marshall Smith
Senior Developer
Marshall Co-founded Radial with Ben in 2015 because he wanted to help create the kind of company that is welcoming to developers and professionals of all stripes and because he wants his work to be something that impacts real people, that solves real problems, and which creates lots of value for society, in-general. He also is an accomplished pianist – if you meet him, don’t forget to ask when his next “Sweater Rock” or blues gig is, or engage him in a spirited discussion of John Williams, Rachmaninov, or Debussy. Marshall is the senior front-end developer at Radial and contributes to all projects on design and visual implementation. He also is our resident data-analysis expert and experienced in Python, Ruby, and Javascript.
Caitlin Cerra
Developer
Caitlin started coding when she had a startup idea and thought it would only take a couple afternoons to turn that idea into code. Two years and four programming languages later, Caitlin realized she’d rather write code than be an entrepreneur.
Caitlin’s better half is a shepherd/husky mix named Micah. You might meet if you visit the Radial office.

Natalie Pierce
Office Manager
We like to say Natalie does "everything but write code" at Radial. She manages all operations, finances and assists with product research and development. A lover of challenge, she equally values seeing the minute details as well as advocating for the broader vision of the company, project, or community she is a part of. She is focusing on becoming a Product Leader using active listening and compassion to build products that change lives.
She loves work, but also LOVES not working. Outside the office, you can find her going for a hike, making music, or hanging out with her wonderful partner, Westin.
Jacqueline Job
Director of Engineering
Jac always exceeds expectations. When Jac started, she was an intern from Turing looking for her first opportunity in tech. Radial quickly learned that she is an indispensible part of managing a successful team. Jac’s insights and care for staff has always been a remarkable quality that the rest of us rely on.
When she’s not listening to the needs of the Radial Team, she supports deliverables for clients and client communication. Jac loves her two cats, her husband Peter, and creating things. Her hobbies include drawing and game development.
