Colleagues describe him as "Working with Jonathan has been one of the unexpected delights of my career. Jonathan was hired to bring execution discipline to our engineering function, and he has done that in spades. Jonathan has given us sophisticated processes, neither too heavy nor too light; he's changed how we think about quality; he's revolutionized the way our team collaborates and holds one another accountable; he's made our SaaS strategy actionable and healthy. I have learned many things from his example. Jonathan is also a deep thinker, and he is constantly learning. He is energetic, enthusiastic, and articulate. I am regularly impressed by things he knows, questions he asks, and wisdom he distills out of muddy situations. He has excellent insights about software architecture, design principles, team motivation, root causes, and what makes organizations succeed. To top it all off, Jonathan is also a genuinely nice person. As a business executive, he sometimes wrestles hard situations. I have seen him tells it like it is, and hold others to the same accountability standards he sets for himself -- yet he has never forgotten the humanity that should infuse our business relationships. Because of this, he is well liked and trusted. I'm so glad we've had the chance to work together." and "What I feel really sets Jonathan apart is his ability to approach problems in unconventional ways. Jonathan is a true renaissance leader - he has a complete command of modern software development and leadership processes, but he also brings best practices from other disparate fields into his group. He encourages his team to look outside the box, and consider innovative approaches to solve problems. He spends a lot of time staying up to date with the latest SDLC advances. Jonathan is always willing to call out leadership when he feels they are going in the wrong direction, and to provide input and guidance to his team. Finally, Jonathan is a community organizer. He helps bring discipline best practices to the entire Salt Lake City software development community, through the development of his agile leadership group."
