About Jack Kingsman
Nov 29, 2024
Howdy!
I’m Jack Kingsman, an SRE, developer, and serial hobbyist. I live in Seattle with my partner and work at Atlassian as a Senior SRE on the Atlassian Analytics platform.
I really, really love computers. Bringing joy to others using technology is my highest passion, whether with fun side projects like Nobody.live, or with my day job, where I work hard to keep on-call duties light and incident response nimble and educative.
Hobbies are my hobby, and there’s a good chance asking me “what are you up to in your free time?” will get you a different answer from season to season. Some diversions include:
- volunteering as an event EMT with RockMed
- scuba diving (I’m a PADI divemaster)
- amatuer radio operations (callsign AE9Y)
- keeping fresh- and brackish-water shrimp and snails
- homebrewing mead
- camping and backpacking, especially in the Tablelands of Southern Oregon
- target shooting
- locksport
- developing side projects of varying usefulness/silliness – check out my GitHub
I’m also in love with biohacking, and have four radio-responsive chips embedded under my skin. Learn more about my implants.
