Colleagues describe him as "Jonothan and I worked together for more than three years at Vertafore on the same development team. During that time, Jonothan took a primary role in steering the architecture of our project, implementing many libraries and tools that allowed us to deliver quality features to customers with less effort on the developer's part. Jonothan's OData framework, in particular, made implementing new services against our legacy database a breeze. Jonothan consistently delivers great quality code, simple yet elegant designs, and not only accepts, but encourages, feedback on his work. Jonothan was great to work with, a real team player, and I would not hesitate to work with him again." and "I have had the extreme pleasure of working alongside Jonothan Farr for the past 5 ½ years. During that time, we have built and delivered many exciting and challenging customer features that required new ways of solving complex problems. Jonothan is unparalleled when it comes to thinking outside the box. The age of our application (close to 20 years) presents many obvious obstacles. To continue to enhance it with new feature functionality while simultaneously working on re-factoring and paying off years of technical debt takes skill and patience. Jonothan never shied away from difficult client asks, always looking for a way that balances customer commitments with technical progression. Enterprise clients such as ours often have their own IT personnel. From time to time it is necessary for development to engage at a deeper level. Jonothan was always willing and ready to jump on a call to hasten resolution of a customer issue or provide proof of concept demos to internal and external stake holders alike while working iteratively on a new piece of functionality. He welcomed working directly with customers to ensure we were building the right thing. Within our team and within the entire organization, Jonothan was seen as an approachable and respected leader, mentor, source of ideas, technical know how, and critical thought. At one point, we brought together the architects of all major agency applications to approach a common problem and quickly Jonothan became the obvious lead, providing a solution blueprint for the other products to follow. I have enjoyed working with Jonothan tremendously. His enthusiasm for good design and technical excellence is infectious. He will be a true asset wherever he goes next. "

Listed skills include Spring, Agile Methodologies, Junit, Web Services, and 35 others.
