Bio
Evan Messer
The REST APIs that Jose developed for the MROLife web application were instrumental in its success, achieving the goal of strengthening internal teams at Collins Aerospace with increased business visibility, organization, and team collaboration. Users loved how quickly the application would pull up their plant’s data and how fresh the data was when compared to their previous solution. Would highly recommend Jose for any company looking to develop products to transform how they work by improving their performance, connectivity, and agility.

I worked with Jose on the Commits project at the United Technologies Digital Accelerator. He was very detailed-oriented and calm, despite all the churn happening around us. When we ran into a major performance snag post-launch, Jose correctly identified the issue and provided/implemented the solution in a timely manner, leading to a successful large-scale roll-out. I wish him good luck and would highly recommend him for any future roles
