Jobin Kuruvilla is an Atlassian Consultant with experience in customizing JIRA and writing JIRA plugins for various customers.

From an IT nerd to a DevOps evangelist, Jobin has performed various roles in his professional journey so far.
Jobin is the author of JIRA Development Cookbook, released in 2011, and JIRA 5.x Development Cookbook, released in 2013, both published by Packt Publishing and well-received in the JIRA community. He also runs a website named J-Tricks (http://www.j-tricks.com), using which he shares numerous tutorials to help the developer community, who he believes have contributed immensely to his personal development. It is indeed those tutorials that sowed the first seeds of JIRA Development Cookbook.
Jobin started his career as a Java/J2EE developer in one of the biggest IT companies in India. After spending his initial years in the SOA world, he got hooked into this amazing product called JIRA, which he came across during the evaluation of a number of third-party tools. Soon, Jobin realized the power of JIRA, and pledged to spread the word. He has been doing it ever since, and he reckons there is a long way to go!
Outside the office, Jobin enjoys sports, especially soccer, and is on the verge of getting addicted to movies and social networking sites.

No book is the product of just the author; he just happens to be the one with his name on the cover.
A number of people contributed to the success of this book, and it would take more space than I have to thank each one individually.
First of all, thanks to the Almighty God for helping me to sail through the difficulties in this short life and for making my life as wonderful as it is now.
The next biggest thanks goes to the Content Development Editor, Samantha Gonsalves, and Acquisition Editor, Prachi Bisht, both of whom went through the pain of making me write another book. Also, a big shout-out to Anushree Tendulkar, the Technical Editor, who worked tirelessly to make the book as readable as it is now. And to the entire Packt Publishing team for working so diligently to help bring out another high quality product.
It is amazing to work with talented developers and technical geeks. Thank you to all the intelligent minds, with whom I got a chance to share this amazing journey of programming. Your encouragement and support were/are invaluable to me; you guys rock!
I must also thank the talented Atlassian community who are instrumental in helping each other, sharing solutions, being active in the forums, running user groups, and whatnot. I am just one of the many who have benefited.
Before I wind up, thank you Atlassian for giving us JIRA and a set of other wonderful products. You don't realize how much you are making our lives easier. Go Team!
Last, but not the least, a big thanks to all at Go2group for the support extended in writing this book and believing in my capabilities. We will, together, continue to simplify complexities for our numerous customers.
