Erik Osmond - Quality Assurance Manager

Erik OsmondIn January 2011, Erik heard that DOmedia was looking for a Quality Assurance expert and immediately offered his services to the effort. Weeks later, Erik packed up his closet sized apartment in Brooklyn New York and came cruising down the frigid mid-February interstate, coming to a halt with a cool hockey stop on Nationwide Arena's ice rink, right at the front step of DOmedia's door.

Over the years Erik has actually built up quite a reputation of gliding across the country. Having studied in Chicago, then completing a stint as a vagabond musician in Milwaukee, Erik began to learn the world of Finance on Wall Street just before co-creating a non-profit that promotes open source software.

Erik looks forward to where the luge of life will bring him next. As he states, "Columbus is a great place to build a brand and a company. But having plopped a lotus squat in the middle of the advertising industry, DOmedia will require a presence in multiple advertising hotspots and I look forward to seeing what the geographic demands of the business might be".

Hobbies: Drums, Biking, Golf, Hockey Stops.

Jimmy Huang - Quality Assurance Analyst

Jimmy HuangJimmy Huang is the guy at DOmedia who knows how the sausage is made. He came to us by way of the OSU Fisher College of business talent pipeline. His background in business administration, finance and proficiency in HTML/CSS, PHP, Java, SQL and Python made him a natural fit for DOmedia since the day he walked through the door as a Quality Assurance intern. Once unleashed on our data we decided he really needed to stick around and he became a full time member of our team. The amount of data that flows through the DOmedia platform on a daily basis is astronomical. Jimmy dissects the data and creates reports that help direct our development efforts across departments. his ability to consolidate and create meaning from our data enables us to more intelligently drive product development and share best practices with our marketplace participants. Every time your experience on DOmedia is improved chances are Jimmy’s reports enabled us to see our product in a new light and make changes. Rest assured, when you are on DOmedia Jimmy is watching, and we think that’s a good thing!

When Jimmy’s not making the data work for the greater good he enjoys bending steel with his bare hands, watching grass grow, classical guitar, and short walks.
