Jonathan Mao is a software engineer with 10 years’ experience building AI-powered developer tools and distributed systems at scale, currently driving the Kiro Autonomous Agent at AWS. He created the proof-of-concept that became Kiro, owns its event processing orchestration, and has repeatedly delivered end-to-end systems — from billing reconciliation to Bedrock capacity optimization — that operate reliably for thousands of users. Jonathan specializes in making agentic AI observable and debuggable, designing agent trajectory tracking and comprehensive canaries that turned manual processes into automated, testable pipelines. He pairs hands-on implementation (authoring large portions of codebases and infrastructure like long-running Fargate workflows) with cross-team coordination and mentorship. Based in Seattle, he holds an MEng from UIUC and brings a pragmatic focus on measurable operational improvements, such as reducing test times and maximizing cloud utilization.
