Jon Friesen
Software engineer, maker, and automation enthusiast.
I've loved automating things for as long as I can remember — wrote my first robot program in ninth grade and never looked back. Today I build platform services and chase the kind of problems most people avoid.
Co-founding engineer at Qpoint, where we're building a new way to take control of application egress traffic. Co-founder and technical advisor at RateInsights. Previously a senior engineer at DigitalOcean working on App Platform. Based in Canada.
