Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosh Benner is a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 11 years of experience modernizing large-scale web applications and driving cloud-native infrastructure initiatives. At Ford he leads frontend and DevOps efforts—rewriting Angular apps, migrating hosting to Terraform and Google Cloud, and boosting team deployments by over 50% through CI/CD improvements. He blends hands-on frontend expertise (Angular 6–15, Nx, TypeScript) with infrastructure work (Terraform, Tekton, GCP, Jenkins), and has a track record of improving developer experience and test coverage across organizations. Previously he led developer-experience transformations at Amway and built data-driven tooling and automation at Target, and early entrepreneurial work produced a top-ranked voice-assistant app. Based in Minneapolis but open to major urban tech hubs, he’s equally comfortable shipping polished UIs and architecting the pipelines that keep them reliably deployed.
