Top SchoolJonathan Rutherford is a software support specialist and engineer with 11 years of experience building and maintaining enterprise software, currently focused on CPQ implementations and support for CallidusCloud and McLeod Software. He blends hands-on configuration and IronPython scripting for client-specific CPQ customizations with strong QA roots from his time at Wipro, where he authored test plans and ensured regulatory compliance for major financial clients. More recently he has shifted into backend engineering with Go and made notable open-source contributions to the popular GraphQL .NET ecosystem—improving execution, DataLoader performance, and HTTP middleware robustness. Based in Birmingham, he combines client-facing consultancy skills with deep troubleshooting and performance-oriented coding, making him effective at turning complex requirements into reliable production systems. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of moving between roles (web dev, QA, consulting, OSS) which gives him a pragmatic perspective on delivering durable solutions across the software lifecycle.
