About Us

Zack Andrews

Founder & Developer

zack@onlinewaterbill.com

Zack is the developer behind OnlineWaterBill.com and a rural water customer. He reads meters for his water association today; earlier on, he ran billing through the same system, so he has seen both the field and the office side of the work.

His background runs from large corporations such as IBM and Dillard's to small cybersecurity startups. He brings that mix of scale, security-minded practice, and startup pace to how he builds the product so rural communities get modern billing without losing the personal touch.
