My name is Jonny Lin, welcome to my website!
This is my resume, and a place for me to share some of my work, random thoughts.
I started writing code in 2011, mostly gaming-related. I was lucky enough to have worked on the CraftedMovie server and Wynncraft.
Experienced with all things frontend, real-time web applications.
Speaker at DEFCON 33: Passkeys pwned.
Currently leveling up on rust + webassembly, building frameworks/devtools.
Currently working at SquareX, working on browser security.
Velt (collaboration/multiplayer SDK)
Built cool real-time collaboration features here as a founding engineer. Plug n' play SDK that made your web app multiplayer. Wasn't a big fan of the "hustle" culture so I left after a year.
Near (data company)
Learned a lot about big data, ETL, and real-time geospatial data viz. Company went through acquisition + IPO. Really fun people, loved working in the IdeaLab space. Unfortunately the company went under after some shady stuff done by the executive team (they were charged for fraud).
NOVAtime (hr/payroll solutions)
Didn't do much here, but they built really cool tech (hardware devices for timesheet management). Was an intern for two summers, working on QA automation and SSO. Fun office.
