Mark Huber is a developer, team manager, and general-purpose tech enthusiast who lives and works in Dallas, Texas. In the last several years, he has focused on specializing in large-scale web platforms in the automotive market. He has spent the majority of his time in the .NET environment, but believes the key to mastering your preferred domain is expanding beyond traditional boundaries to look at how other languages and technologies approach the same problems. He has been an avid researcher of other platforms including Java, Ruby, Python, and others. He is also a strong advocate of interweaving .NET projects with supporting open source technologies not traditionally considered with a .NET platform, such as ElasticSearch, Redis, RabbitMQ, Memcached, and others.

Mark is currently a software development manager working at Dealer.com, a Dealertrack technology solution. He is privileged to work with a team of developers, QA, DevOps, product owners, and many others, who truly live the principles and values of the Agile Manifesto (http://agilemanifesto.org/) as well as view their work through the lens of the Software Craftsmanship Manifesto (http://manifesto.softwarecraftsmanship.org/).
