Jonny Asmar is a Principal Frontend Software Engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience building scalable, user-centered web platforms using React, Node.js, GraphQL, and AWS. He has led design system initiatives and application frameworks—authoring documentation and patterns that accelerated adoption across entire organizations and powered over 40 reusable UI components. At Meta he reimagined the Privacy Review experience, slashing review times from 55 days to under 5 and enabling automated verification for a majority of templated requirements across ~30,000 product areas. Jonny blends technical leadership and mentorship with strategic problem-solving, routinely driving cross-team discovery, metric-driven tooling, and company-wide shifts like GraphQL adoption. Currently shaping Trello at Atlassian, he pairs an “anything is possible” mentality with a knack for turning complex compliance and collaboration problems into efficient, repeatable systems. Based in Centreville, VA, he also brings entrepreneurial experience and marketing-savvy from earlier consultancy work that generated significant business impact.
