Ambler received a BSc in computer science and a MA in information science from the University of Toronto. He has been working in the IT industry since the mid-1980s, with object technology since the early 1990s [2], and in IT methodologies since the mid-1990s. Scott has led the development of several software processes, including Disciplined Agile Delivery (DAD) (with Mark Lines), Agile Modeling (AM), Agile Data (AD), Enterprise Unified Process (EUP), and Agile Unified Process (AUP) methodologies. Scott is currently a Senior Consulting Partner with SA+A [3] helping organizations around the world to improve their IT processes.
Ambler was a contributing editor with Dr. Dobb's Journal,[4] and has written columns for Software Development, Object Magazine, and Computing Canada.
