Summary
Jon Trulson is a senior platform engineer and consultant with over 16 years building Unix/Linux systems, embedded Linux board bring-up, and hardware-accelerated graphics across small-company environments. He combines deep C/C++ and shell expertise with hands-on experience in kernel drivers, video hardware, X11/CDE ports, and Yocto-based embedded stacks for ARM and other architectures. At ICS he focuses on Qt-driven embedded UIs and medical device platforms, and previously led engineering, QA and systems teams delivering accelerated OpenGL and X11 solutions. A long-time open-source maintainer (Network Audio System and the Conquest game) and former author of MIT-licensed IoT drivers, he blends low-level systems craftsmanship with practical product delivery. Based in Denver, he’s equally comfortable debugging video hardware or shepherding cross-platform ports that few engineers still remember how to do.
