Jordan Counts Email & Phone Number

Jordan Counts is a Distributed Systems Engineer at EDB. He possess expertise in java, python, c++, c, microsoft word and 24 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure of working with Jordan as his direct manager for approximately three years while we were colleagues IBM. He is an experienced and talented developer, as evidenced by his career history and skills, but what really stood out to me was his willingness to tackle complex (and often just plain ugly) problems and persevere through to solutions. We had a complex cloud service architecture with a lot of legacy code that pre-dated rapidly evolving Cloud computing standards and best practices. Meeting strategic compliance requirements while continuing to delivery on immediate customer commitments was a considerable challenge for our small team. Jordan’s work stood out because he embraced hard problems enthusiastically and intrepidly. He had a highly transparent working style, communicating openly and frankly, and never hesitating to critique his own work publicly so others could learn from his experience. This helped drive a culture of positive change and collaboration across the team. I’m confident Jordan will make a positive impact in any organization he joins and would enjoy the opportunity to work with him again in the future.", "Jordan is an outstanding Senior Software Engineer and a pleasure to have on any SE team. At our organization, Jordan was a culture carrier. He is a shining example of self-motivation -- in light of him consistently taking on complex tasks on behalf of the team without being asked. His self drive and eagerness to help others compliment his deep technical skills and ability to ship high-quality software (in a new language / framework) expediently. I highly recommend Jordan and hope to work with him again in the future.", and "I can highly recommend Jordan for your software service development, scaffolding, and operations. I met Jordan while working with a Python microservices team at IBM Cloudant. We spent several years working in proximity through various challenges facing the service. Over that time he grew to be a trusted team-member -- expanding his duties to operations for our 24/7 database service. Jordan was one of the few engineers I've worked with that really worked to understand and contribute to infrastructure configuration management. In my eyes this cements him as a dev/ops/infra champion. As our organization evolved I saw Jordan expand his skills to include Kubernetes, Redis, Sensu, Graphite -- he's never backed down from a challenge in my memory. Jordan has targeted a few significant projects with major solo contribution and execution in areas such as distributed database backup and restoration. He's worked wonderfully with other team members as well as external stakeholders. Jordan is going to be an extremely valuable asset to any team, and I thank him for all the great work accomplished during his tenure at IBM Cloudant!"
