Bio
LinkedIn User
Josh is an incredible technologist and a humble leader. He works tirelessly on some of our largest accounts, overseeing large teams and being accountable for global implementations. His technical acumen speaks for itself but where he really shines is his interaction with people. Josh has proven his ability to grow individuals from earlier-career technologists into confident, knowledgeable senior consultants. I highly recommend Josh for any position which requires a high degree of emotional intelligence, technical know-how and employee mentorship.

I had he please of working with Josh for some time and only have positive memories of that time. Josh was my 'go to' for any DevOps-related questions, be they practical (his knowledge of Azure DevOps is extensive), assisting me with architecture discussions or cultural (much of DevOps relies on the right approach to the cultural barriers that may exist within an organisation and Josh and I had many discussions on how best to navigate this). Josh's drive to help his team adopt architectural principles and practices pushed his line of business into delivering ever higher quality products at ever frequent rates to their customers. His practical, intellectual, informed approach all helped to energise his colleagues into embracing modern approaches to customer-centric architectural and DevOps practices. Josh is also a great character to be around and I have no hesitation in personally recommending him for any DevOps or architecture related position.
