Jonathan Thomas

Creator & Lead Developer

I have over 14 years of professional software development experience, and am the creator and lead developer of OpenShot Video Editor. I have worked for many years as both a software architect and senior-level developer, focusing on large, highly complex, web-based systems. I have successfully lead and managed an international team of developers and successfully delivered software to hundreds of thousands of users. In fact, over 500,000 students are now being taught OpenShot in schools each year in India, as well as many other countries. I enjoy teaching, training, and speaking about software any chance I get, and recently spoke at the largest Linux conference in the United States, SCALE 9X.

I currently reside in Texas, USA, and am available for contract work, as well as open-minded to employment opportunities. Please feel free to send me any inquiries you may have.

My programming skills include: Python, Django, C++, C, C#, VB.NET, JavaScript, JQuery, HTML, CSS, GTK+, T-SQL, and PL-SQL. My graphic design skills include: Inkscape, Gimp, Blender, and Adobe Photoshop.
