About Jonas...

I'm technically a software developer by trade but I'm also a generalist with background in operations and have been in the past one or more of the following: programmer, technical support analyst, technical writer, systems designer, database administrator, amateur cook, and professional curmudgeon.

I'm currently working at Figure in Reno, NV as part of the Software Engineering team helping them with microservices, kubernetes, spring, kotlin, or anything else they can think of.

My technical knowledge is not limited to Linux / Unix technologies. I worked in cross-platform environments which used Windows, Linux and other Unix flavors. I have worked with several scripting and programming languages, including Kotlin, Python, Bash Shell, C#, Java, SQL, and I'm always tinkering with the next shiny thing.

Thanks,

Jonas Gorauskas
