About Jon K.
I am a product-minded software engineer with specialization in complex, highly-stateful, and media-rich user interfaces. I prefer to work with high-performing cross-functional product teams that make decisions using data and experimentation. I have a record of driving change via advocacy and education around software quality through a disciplined approach to unit testing and test-driven continuous refactoring. I have experience with adaptive bitrate video playback and the use of browser APIs to build performant multimedia experiences on both desktop and low-power devices. As an early adopter of agentic engineering, I\'ve helped teams adapt to new workflows while maintaining a high standard of quality. I\'ve been called a super-communicator, and I am an experienced speaker and educator.
