Ulta Beauty has been able to recognize the value from Ansible Automation Plaftorm as labor hours given back to the organization. Speed and efficiency, MTTR, and other resiliance and availability metrics are reported monthly to give senior leaders visibility into the value Ulta Beauty has seen from Ansible.
As Ulta’s IT Director for Performance, Automation and Quality, the heart of Jesse’s mission is scaling automation to liberate teams to work on higher value work (the hard, and rewarding stuff!) while simultaneously driving speed, accuracy and sustainability of technology delivery and operation. Prior to his current role Jesse spent 10 years driving digital technology delivery for Ulta ‘s online and omni-channel business within both IT and the business.
