こんにちは 🤟
My name is Jonathan Butler (known by my friends as JB). I am a social technologist and leader that loves sharing knowledge, building community, and improving systems, all while trying to cultivate a stoic mindset.
Currently a group product manager at Nintex and volunteer no-code solution architect. I have the privilege of working with various talented groups from all over the world, including the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Dubai, South Africa, and the U.K.

Work

After spending time as an engineer, program manager, and product manager, I now get to help determine the strategy for AI and Machine Learning opportunities across the Nintex platform. Processes are the story of how a business works, and by providing better insights and recommendations, we have the opportunity to influence the way that millions of people around the world do their day to day work.A constant tinkerer and lifelong learner, I am always working on at least one side project, and use my leftover time to volunteer and get involved in my local community.To see more of my past work, check-out my LinkedIn profile.

Books

These are my current top five most influential books. I highly recommend giving them a read as they will help take you to other worlds and look at your own world in new ways.To see what I am currently reading or what is in my backlog, check out my profile on Goodreads.
