Welcome to another Tech Explorations Podcast episode.

I’m the host, Peter Dalmaris, an online educator and Maker, author of Maker Education Revolution, and founder at Tech Explorations.

In this session, my special guest is Jon Evans.

Jon is an electrical engineer and open-source software developer based in Boston, MA.

Since around 2011, Jon has been designing electronics and firmware for industrial and consumer products, and most recently in the 3D printing industry.

He’s been a contributor to the KiCad EDA project since 2016 and a member of the lead developer team since 2018. He’s also created several smaller open-source projects related to LED art installations.

In this conversation, we’ll take a look at Jon as a Maker, Engineer, and open source project contributor, how he started, and how he got to where he is today.
