Jonathan Soeder
Jonathan Soeder is the Chicago startup community's favorite hacker's favorite hacker, a title he refuses to accept on account of the enormous debt he owes to the technologists who came before him. A generalist, he has designed, developed, and maintained software that runs across many platforms. He earned notoriety in 2010 when he challenged the world's literary elite to come up with an idea in English that he could not bring alive with Ruby and Javascript.
Jonathan takes pride whenever former comrades from his fifteen years in the industry call to regale him with news of the systems he built for them: still running strong, still making money, still powered by open source. Some go as far back as the AOL era.
Jonathan helped start the digital education companies Watermelon Express and BenchPrep, which collectively launched over a hundred educational titles on the app stores. As their CTO, he helped take the company through multiple rounds of investment to create the first cross platform educational app for the iPhone, iPad, Android, and Web platforms.
In addition to advising several startups, he is working on http://architects.io which is a drafting board for software Architects used to produce application design blueprints which automatically test and report on the progress and quality of the software systems as they are built.
