Software Developer and Analyst at nexB Inc. Core Maintainer @ ScanCode, a leading FOSS SCA tool and Licence scanner.
❝ Jay has strong code contributions in AboutCode projects and was selected also as part of the Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2023. I had the pleasure to work with and mentor Jay on his project to create pure-python fallback dependencies for a number of performance-critical libraries used in ScanCode. He is smart, energetic, consistent, and was able to make huge progress on this complex and important project. He finished GSoC successfully, exceeding our expectations. I highly recommend Jay! ❞
