Autorenporträt

Joshua Schairbaum is a developer working at Cardinal Health in Dublin, Ohio. He wears many hats, but his currently role is taking him down the road of setting strategy for service management and root cause analysis, but he still writes a lot code to increase the productivity for himself or others. He pushes solutions that are simple and innovative while saving the company money and time. Prior to working for Cardinal, he worked for JPMorganChase & Co. where he lead a small team that created the first corporately supported Rails application inside the bank, much to the consternation of the enterprise astronauts. That application was meant to be a 6 month stop gap, but has survived for over 2 years with a user base in excess of 20,000 people.
