Profile: https://flows.cv/jonathanreem

I’m a software engineer. I’m mostly interested in creating scalable systems, which stems from my mathematical mindset and love of cool algorithms and data structures. My background is mostly in server side programming, library and API design, and creating efficient, conceptually clear, systems.

My most popular project is Iron, a concurrency-focused application framework written in Rust that represents that largest attempt at creating a server framework in Rust so far. I am also a major contributor to Hyper, a modern and fast HTTP implementation and have many other open source projects that are recognized in the Rust community, including a lazy evaluation library, a testing library, a scoped threadpool library, an error library, a plugin system for open types, an eventing library, and many others.
