Jon Tan is a Senior Software Engineer with 10 years of experience building and leading backend and platform teams, currently based in Oakland. He blends a scientific background in biochemistry with deep technical expertise in auth, APIs, secret management, and cloud-native infrastructure, and has driven migrations from Java to Kotlin and extensive Terraform/Kubernetes work. Jon has led cross-functional teams and managed eight engineers at Airbyte, contributing to the leading open-source data integration platform by owning build/release and platform lifecycle tasks. He has a long-standing focus on healthcare integrations—FHIR, HL7, CCDA, SSO and Direct Messaging—helping startups and established vendors alike deliver production-grade EHR integrations. Motivated by learning and community impact, he’s as comfortable mentoring and shaping technical roadmaps as he is shipping infra and security-sensitive features. An uncommon strength is his ability to translate clinical interoperability requirements into robust, automated platform solutions.
