Josef Hartsough

As a full-stack engineer at Stone Plastics & Manufacturing, I am responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining mission-critical software systems that streamline our day-to-day operations. My work spans everything from production scheduling and forecasting to developing custom integrations and building tools that directly impact both internal teams and customer-facing applications.

As a Junior Web Developer, I worked on transitioning a legacy eCommerce platform from PHP to Django, improving performance, scalability, and user experience. My focus was on modernizing the tech stack, optimizing backend performance, and improving front-end interactions, moving away from jQuery to newer, more efficient technologies.

As a Senior Credit Assistance Specialist, I worked in a fast-paced environment where I was responsible for managing over 500 customer accounts, handling complex billing issues, and implementing new processes to improve efficiency. I developed advanced Excel tools, including powerful macros and dashboards, to automate repetitive tasks and track key financial metrics.

During my service in the United States Marine Corps, I was honored to serve as a small unit leader and earned the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal for my leadership in challenging environments. I was entrusted with high-stakes responsibilities and tasks.
