Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJon Bent is an experienced full-stack software engineer turned Android Developer based in San Francisco, with nine years shipping web and mobile applications using React/Redux, Ruby on Rails, and LAMP stacks. He has led and hired small React Native teams, built React-native apps with Rails APIs and SSO, and produced rapid feature-driven work—implementing ~100 features and custom tooling like a PHP PDF generator in prior roles. Comfortable across backend databases (Postgres, MySQL), testing stacks (RSpec, Jasmine), and front-end pixel-perfect implementations, he pairs hands-on coding with practical product thinking. A self-taught tinkerer since childhood, Jon still runs a personal server he built as a teen and used it to deploy a near–pixel-perfect Weedmaps clone while learning React. He brings fast iteration, cross-functional collaboration from non-tech roles (kitchen leadership) into engineering, and a proven track record of delivering working software under tight deadlines.
