About Jayson Minard (Editor-in-Chief)

Jayson Minard used to work here. At DevZone that is, but has been away and now snuck back to write this article while Cal was hung-over from ZendCon Happiness.

When he is not sneaking into DevZone, he strengthens his background in e-commerce, highly scalable applications, search systems, software development processes and commercial software development. He has developed far too many software systems ranging from desktop applications through extremely high volume distributed systems.

Jayson currently operates MindHeap Technology, providing technology strategy, architecture, product management and development consulting at high levels in client organizations; from architect through CIO/CTO. He works with clients such as Endeca, Boeing, ProQuest, Zend, AbeBooks, Alibris, JobMagnet and is also the CTO of TinyMassive. Previously, as CIO and CTO of AbeBooks, he rebuilt the IT organization and technology platform and brought AbeBooks to a level playing field with the likes of Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Half.com. That success has led to a recent acquisition by Amazon.

Jayson works across PHP, Java, Ruby and .NET platforms balancing his time and experiences to stay strong in each. In fact in the PHP world he created the Zend DevZone community site and was the founding Editor-in-Chief, created the strategy for ZendCon, and led the Zend Framework open-source project. He contributed to the Java platform as the Chief Architect for the Java Business Unit at Borland creating JBuilder and shaping early Java specifications. Jayson also has experience with most major database platforms, enterprise technology and grid computing.

He has been in software development for over 20 years but still thinks he will some day be a movie producer or own a recording studio. Instead he owns WorkSpace Cafe in Vancouver which is a hang-out for people seeking a better place to work.
