My name is Jonathan Giles. I am a Principal Java Architect at Microsoft.
Previously, I was a technical lead in the JavaFX team at Sun Microsystems and Oracle Corp for nine years, where I led the development of the JavaFX UI controls library, and other related libraries. With my considerable contributions to Java releases 7 through 11, I take immense pride in having my code deployed on almost every computer on the planet.
I am passionate about creating excellent developer experiences with considered API design, documentation, testing, and tooling. I have toured the world extensively to present and write on these topics, and as a result I am a Java Champion, JavaOne Rockstar, and a Duke’s Choice award-winner.
More details about my job history are on LinkedIn .
I am always looking for new opportunities to work with great teams on exciting projects. Get in touch with me !
