Jonathon Whitener

Chief Technology Officer

Jonathon has over six years of experience developing PHP/MySQL applications on Linux-based platforms and has studied computer science for more than 12 years. He has been working with Drupal since the 5.1 release and has worked on over one hundred Drupal sites, four of which were for Fortune 500 companies.

Jonathon is passionate about efficient and scalable code. His sites handle millions of page views per day. He is a master of key performance boosting technologies, including reverse proxy caches, memcache, and APC.

Additionally, Jonathon offers expertise in integrating Drupal with third-party applications via RESTful APIs and web services implementations. On the front end, he rounds out his skills with a keen interest in great design and UX, and all of the fun that you can have with Ajax.

When Jonathon is not Drupaling, he spends his time with his wife and puppy in Austin, Texas. You often can find him playing some sort of FPS on X-Box Live, but you won't be able to kill him.
