Jonathan Andrew Wolter’s Summary
I'm a senior consultant at ThoughtWorks. I spend my time writing code, doing tech lead responsibilities, and political tiptoeing.
Previously, I was part of FeedBurner, building out their advertising serving engine and other exciting applications. It was a great experience working on the core engineering team that led to a successful acquisition by Google.
Before that I was at a boutique consulting company as a web application developer of custom enterprise content management solutions. Clients were primarily Fortune 500 companies.
I'm always interested in meeting with entrepreneurs and idea people.
