Jacob Thornton has been doing software development in the bay area for over a decade, as an early employee at startups like Twitter, Medium, and Coinbase. During this time he contributed to several large open source projects (most notably as the co-creator of Twitter Bootstrap), given talks around the world (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIDb6VBO9os), and written several chapters in technical books (beautiful javascript, if Hemingway wrote javascript).

CoinbaseTwitter

I have worked for a number of consumer tech companies ranging from Twitter in 2010 to Coinbase in 2018. I started as a backend engineer using Ruby on Rails and then eventually moved up the stack to iOS engineering, React Native engineering and now mostly React. I enjoy hanging out with my cat when not working.
