What we’re made of
We are a devoted group of creative designers, coders, writers, thinkers, and tinkerers building amazing experiences for others. This stuff is our passion, and we like to think we have a knack for it. We hope you do, too.
Eric Bobbitt
Platform Lead
When he's not arguing semantics, dancing at all the wrong times, or drawing randomly on the office whiteboards, you'll find him working on the Ionic Platform, planning new features, and not-so-silently cursing at his laptop. Otherwise he's probably feeding his gaming addiction with a glass of whiskey or a good Belgian beer.
Brody Kidd
Business Development & Support
If you can’t find him on call, shuffling through email, poking around on a new CRM, in our live chat support, or white boarding new business development… Odds are he is surfing lake Michigan, fly fishing the gin clear streams of the driftless region, camping in the north woods, or milking his goats.
Dan Imhoff
Platform Developer
Dan "the Sunshine Man" builds awesome stuff for the Ionic Platform. When not shredding it in Vim, he can be found tearing over snow in his fat bike, attending the Madison tech meetups, ignorantly rating restaurants, taking a bunch of photographs at random cities and National Parks, or, possibly, still playing LEGOs.
Jamie Warner
Platform Developer
Spends most of his time jogging in the woods, practicing black magic on wild animals, watching Let's Play videos on YouTube of games he probably will never play, and generally staring off into space. He studies math and computer science at Wisconsin, and takes care of all things analytical at Ionic.
Tim Lancina
Tools Developer
A temporarily embarrassed pro soccer player, Tim is fond of traveling the world and trying to convince his coworkers to eat bugs. When not doing either of those, he is usually breaking things related to Ionic tooling, the platform, or the framework.
Drew Rygh
Frontend Developer
On most days, you will find Drew devising dazzling demos, drafting documentation, and consuming copious quantities of caffeine. He is obsessed with clarity, and making Ionic easy and fun to use. When not working, you might find him walking around the UW-Madison campus, where he is studying philosophy and computer science.
Mike Hartington
Community Support
Deep in the frozen North, just before the great wall, a man sits with a laptop, surrounded by several cups of coffee and a glass of whiskey. Traveling across this great kingdom, he enlightens other devs and shares his knowledge through the written and spoken word. When the laptop is not near, he often finds solace in music with his guitar.
Adam Bradley
Framework Lead
Adam was once Marty McFly in another life, but is now back to the future of open source heading up all things Ionic Framework. When not slinging code, he can be found hanging out with his wife and kids, befriending dogs, and traveling space and time in his Delorean.
Matt Kremer
Creator Lead
Two couches, a lazy boy, 40” TV and wired internet. Awesome man-cave? Nope, that’s just Matt’s garage where he spends his time working on Creator, the worlds most awesome project ever (or at least his mom says so). With “Anything Is Possible” tattooed on his arm, Matt enjoys tackling complex business and programming problems, as well as attempting to win board games against his wife.
Brandy Carney
Framework Developer
When she isn't busy keeping her two chihuahuas from killing each other, Brandy can be found making the Ionic Framework pretty by means of Sass. She loves helping people while continuing to expand her own knowledge. After hours she can be found on her patio shopping online with a glass of wine in hand. Give her a glass and she'll write some Sass.
Liz Maves
Admin Coordinator
With keen attention to detail Liz works behind the scenes, providing support to Ionic employees. From onboarding new hires, stocking the lounge with healthy snacks, walking any office dog that will let her, or planning the next Ionic Bonding event; she’s almost magical. When not at Ionic HQ, you’re most likely to find Liz on the disc golf course, trying to get her first ace, or in the kitchen, preparing a delicious meal.
Cristina Costa
Director of Growth
Innately curious and analytical, Cristina handles all things growth at Ionic. When she's not busy asking everyone questions about data, she can be found outside running, trying to complete the NY Times crossword, or planning her next trip abroad.
Rudy Pelrine
Platform Developer
A musician, DJ, sound engineer, photographer, and self proclaimed fashion nerd, Rudy seems to find a new obsession daily. At Ionic, you'll find him working on the Platform services, making sure everyone's notifications arrive safe and sound.
Perry Govier
Frontend Engineer
Be it code, places, gadgets, food, or conversation, Perry loves to explore. While AFK he's probably biking around Madison, spending time with his wife and son, "refactoring" his house, or avoiding his overweight cat to whom he is very allergic and wishes was a dog.
Katie Ginder-Vogel
Marketing & Communications
Katie handles Ionic’s marketing, communications, and editorial, writing blog posts about unique Ionic apps and dreaming up new ways to bring Ionic to developers around the world. Outside the office, she can be found on land, running or hiking, or in the water, swimming and paddleboarding.
