Jonas Julian Jensen

I'm a computer engineer from Norway. I specialize in FPGA development using VHDL. That's a type of reconfigurable microchip and its coding language.

I hold a master's degree in informatics and have experience working as a developer for Norway's leading defense company.

In June 2018, I left my job to live as a location-independent developer.
