He is proficient in French. Colleagues describe him as "Josh was my engineering partner at Sharethrough for over 4 years. It is hard to capture how amazing he is a couple of paragraphs but I will try. He is not only one of the best engineers I have worked with but also one of the best leaders. On top of his excellent technical skills, he is an effective communicator, creative problem solver and strong collaborator. He takes the time to understand the customer problem and the why behind anything we build. He was the first to jump on a customer call when needed and the first to dive into any reported issue from a client. He doesn't immediately jump to the first solution to a problem but spends time to explore options, evaluate risks and properly communicate scope. Josh goes above and beyond for his team. He ensures everyone feels supported and included. He is the first to wish you a happy anniversary, celebrate a life event or check in if you are having an off day. He is the main reason our team seamlessly transitioned from in-person to remote during Covid, scheduling team check-in's, knowledge sharing sessions and virtual social events. These are just a few examples of how Josh positively impacted the team and company culture. He makes work fun and rewarding. His next team is very lucky to have him!" and "Josh is an amazing manager that I had the chance to team up with for about 5 years. The way he manages the engineers in his team makes the collaboration and teamwork a consistent great experience. Within the team, he is knowledgeable on both technical and non-technical matters. Knowledge that he loves spreading to as much as gathering from the team in a very rewarding way for everyone. Whether as a team or individually, he promotes sharing in several ways like organizing dedicated team meetings, pair-programming, encouraging relevant documentation… He is the guarantor of a great atmosphere in the team, bringing great energy daily, being supportive of new ideas and stimulating a good team spirit. He identifies individuals’ strengths and knows how to leverage them as well as widening them. He makes everything he can to let the engineers in his team grow. Outside the team, he is a great gateway to other teams. He stays updated about other teams’ projects and technologies and shares relevant findings to the group. He works closely with the product team to help shape stories. His vitality and enthusiasm propagate to other teams and make the collaboration pleasant. Josh, I’ve become a better engineer alongside you and the rest of your team and I hope our paths cross again in our next chapters."
