Hello,
I’m Jonathon.
I'm a software designer and product leader based in Aotearoa New Zealand. I see great design as the result of even greater synthesis, the process of balancing technology, context, and human desire.
Experience
For over 15 years I’ve worked with companies across Asia, Oceania, and North America. Through a combination of hands-on product, marketing and engineering expertise I've led and cultivated teams, while taking products from 0 to 1.
Mentorship
I help designers, product people, and founders untangle challenges through honest, actionable mentorship. Whether you're just starting a career or navigating an existing one, I offer advice tailored to any goal.
Projects
I believe designers are made better by deeply engaging with the materials at hand. This is why I enjoy taking the time to build things and experimenting with ideas.
Achievements
Highlights from my career and education which have been picked up in the press, recognized with awards, or even patented.
Education
Contact
I'm always interested to meet new people, learn new things and hear fresh perspectives. If you'd like to send me an email I'd be happy to write back. Otherwise you can follow me on X, BlueSky or LinkedIn.
