Available to hire
I’m Jonathon ‘Jay’ Goetz, a software engineer with over 25 years of experience building dynamic, data-driven web sites and applications across mobile and web platforms. I specialize in iOS development (SwiftUI, UIKit), Java, .NET, and front-end frameworks like Angular and EXTJS, with a strong foundation in OO design and design patterns. I thrive in Agile environments and have a track record of delivering high-quality software while collaborating with cross-functional teams and external partners. I’ve been recognized for a positive attitude and a can-do mindset.
I’m a collaborative team player who communicates clearly and effectively, comfortable working remotely or on-site, and experienced in delivering solutions that meet real user needs. I enjoy mentoring others, embracing new technologies, and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement.
