Bio
Morry Kolman
I had the pleasure of working with Justin at Caribu and cannot recommend him enough. Justin is a very talented engineer across the stack, and that is fueled in no small part by his consistent determination to understand every tool he comes across at a deep and fundamental level. Our work in developing Caribu took our team to many uncharted waters, and tasks which many people would find challenging Justin found exciting. To hire Justin only for his coding skills would be a pleasant surprise, because aside from navigating engineering tasks left and right, he's also one of the most charismatic and enjoyable people to have on a team. This man has no shortage of jokes and near encyclopedic movie knowledge, so feel confident that pretty much any reference you make will land. All in all, Justin was a key player on our team both professionally and culturally, and anybody reading this would be lucky to work with him.

Justin is a fantastic engineer and a joy to work with. We worked together on an open source product and I loved tackling complicated back end logic with him. He never backed down in the face of serious challenges, and he was a consistently valuable collaborator. What impresses me most about Justin is his tenacity and deep understanding of what’s going on under the hood of what he builds. Also, his delightful demeanor–to have a teammate that makes you laugh while programming? Can’t put a price on that. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat–he’ll definitely be an asset to every team he’s a part of in the future.
