John Collom Iv Email & Phone Number

John Collom Iv is a Senior Staff Engineer at Ridgeline. He possess expertise in javascript, angularjs, angular, typescript, web application development and 23 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I've had the honor of working with Johnny TWICE now. Once where I reported to him directly and once where he reported to me directly. Each of those times, Johnny was a slayer of dragons. You could not dream of a project to throw at him, that he could not evaluate, architect, discuss, or implement from start to finish. During my two years with Johnny at Blackbird, I reported to him and he was one of two irreplaceable engineers. His knowledge of the front end technology was unparalleled and his knowledge of how the business ran exceeded even the most senior of leadership within the company. While at Landing, Johnny was a key player on the team. He consistently demonstrated his ability to handle complex projects and mentor the team effectively. He didn't wait for specifications to come to him, he chased down the need, wrote them up himself and owned the initiative from cradle to the grave. His technical knowledge spans the entire stack, and he's always up-to-date with the latest tools and trends. Johnny's expertise and encyclopedic knowledge of software development can only be appreciated if you get the chance to work with him. Beyond his technical prowess, Johnny's business acumen is impressive. He not only drove our team towards robust solutions but also contributed significantly to our strategic decisions. I wholeheartedly recommend Johnny for his exceptional skills and leadership qualities. With any luck I will work with him again in the future." and "Over the nearly five years we worked together at Blackbird, Johnny was always an incredibly thoughtful, collaborative, and approachable leader who was not only capable of single-handedly tackling some of the most critical large scale feature/product development and refactors we had (which he did regularly), but someone who also always made sure to bring the rest of the team along with him through thoughtful mentorship and generous use of his time helping others. So much of what I know about the nuts and bolts of modern software development I know because of Johnny, and to be honest his technical knowledge when it comes to modern web frameworks and languages across the stack is tough to overstate. He is always up to date on the latest tools and trends (ensuring that our libraries never fell out of date from the latest release cycle), and in our time together I saw him onboard himself into (and subsequently mentor others) into a range of technical areas including numerous front-end/back-end frameworks, architecture best practices, and devops pipelines. He has what feels like an encyclopedic knowledge of every tool he has ever used. Beyond his technical excellence, he was quick to identify and understand business use cases of everything we built, their broader implications, and asked pertinent questions others did not consider about the long term strategy of each offering. He was incredibly effective at driving the team towards robust business solutions in a timely manner, and was a key leader in all technical initiatives and decision making at Blackbird. I watched him generously mentor not only members of our team, but also provide support and guidance to anyone who reached out with an interest in making a career pivot into software development. Johnny has the ability to be a foundational pillar for any company looking to build a high performing, approachable, and growth-minded engineering organization, and that is what he was at Blackbird. A big part of this is because the verticals of being a top-tier technical contributor as well as an empathetic engineering leader come so naturally to him, and he made everyone in our organization so much better because of it."
