Testimonials

I managed Jon during his two 3 month internships with Datadog. During that time I was impressed with Jon's drive to improve: consistently asking for candid feedback and, importantly, taking action based on that feedback. I think this a great trait that will serve him well in his career. One of his projects, a web-based playground for a DSL (https://playground.vrl.dev/) also demonstrated a willingness to learn through jumping into different parts of the stack from Rust to WASM to HTML/CSS/JS.

Jonathan was on my team as a software engineering summer intern. He worked on building solutions for telemetry collection software. He used the standard aws tools for infrastructure and development. Jonathan always had a great attitude and brought great energy to the team. He worked hard to get up to speed and was able to deliver valuable software for the team in a short amount of time
