About

Who am I, and what even is a CataByte?

Me - Johnathan Jacobs

I am an experienced engineer, with over 8 years of experience in the banking and data space. I have worked in data, front-end, and back-end development. C++ and golang are probably my two favourite languages, though I appreciate a robust type-system so rust and ocaml aren’t bad.

My hobby development mostly includes working on personal game projects as that’s what I find most exciting. There’s always some problem that will force you into hours of research and deep-dives in search for the data structure or algorithm that would best fit your use-case; and there’s almost always a need or opportunity to optimize a solution that other areas (cough the web cough) usually don’t need.

Feel free to check my LinkedIn, or GitHub profiles.

CataByte

CataByte is my personal project, my sole-proprietorship that I use for my freelance work and commercial projects.

I hope to release a game under the name before the heat-death of the universe, but I wouldn’t hold your breath.
