Jordan Rogers

Hello! I'm Jordan, and I love helping people make things better.

Leadership

I'm a servant leader. I've helped teams see the value in Agile and Scrum, adapt at a sustainable pace, and reap the benefits of small commitments, constant planning and refinement. Lifting the team up is my number-one goal.

Management

Leveraging my project management interest and skills, I've led Agile teams to success with my thirst for understanding and knowledge sharing. I've prioritized shared backlogs of tens of products and driven Agile adoption in the organization.

Dev Experience

Experienced in PHP and C#, I've written everything from the smallest script to a multi-area, department-running web application. I have an affinity for clean and consistent UI and attention to detail in finishing and shipping products.
