Our Story
John and Gary
The Ryzen Legacy
Founded in 1999 by Gary Mantalas and John Staulo in the heart of Silicon Valley, Ryzen began like many startups — out of Gary’s garage. With combined expertise in Mechanical Engineering and Business Development, they set out to build a company that could deliver technical and consulting solutions with speed, precision, and integrity.
What started with a focus on engineering and CAD automation has evolved into a full-service partner, delivering specialized solutions across product development, IT, and operations. Today, Ryzen supports companies and professionals across the U.S. and beyond, helping teams thrive and individuals advance their careers.
Gary’s influence remains central to our values: relationships first, technical excellence, and integrity in every partnership
