James’ world changed in 1982 when he got a Sinclair ZX Spectrum for Christmas. Since then, he hasn’t stopped hacking and noodling about with technology. When he’s not studying the output of an oscilloscope or a logic analyser, he can typically be found kayaking our white water rivers in winter, or navigating our offshore waters when it’s warmer. |
Jon looks after all things cloud related at QRT. With a background in low latency trading system optimisation and Linux system engineering, he has spent the past 7 years designing and building cloud infrastructure for various financial companies. When not playing with the latest technology or gadget, he loves trying to automate his (not so) smart home, spending time wild camping in the woods, or chasing his dogs and chickens around the garden. |
