Joseph Ross, solution developer, Information Technology team
Joseph Ross is a solution developer with Ford’s Information Technology team. He joined the company four years ago, and is responsible for a variety of application and framework development for the Ford SYNC® platform.
"I’ve always loved technology and since I – and so many others – spend so much time driving, I wanted to help find ways to use technology on the road," says Ross. "My job gives me the opportunity to explore new technologies and how to bring them to the vehicle. It’s been exciting to interact with companies outside the industry such as Pandora and Stitcher."
