Jonah Greenthal is a member of NAQT, for which he does a wide variety of technical work, subject editing (primarily mathematics), set editing (including roughly a dozen national championships), and logistics (including logistics-directing the 2012 and 2013 MSNCT and 2017 ICT).

Jonah developed custom software for Scobol Solo, which thereby became the first known tournament to track exactly where in questions players buzzed. He helps David Reinstein edit Solo as well as the Masonic set, and used to co-TD the New Trier Varsity tournaments (additionally writing and editing much of it in 2008 and 2009).

His remarkable software career got its start in February of 2008 when he hacked into the New Trier High School computer system, accessing several confidential files in the process.[1] As a result, he was suspended from New Trier and did not attend the 2008 HSNCT, where his team placed 27th without him.

His unremarkable playing career was for Chicago (2010–2012), Illinois (2008–2009), and New Trier (2005–2008).
