Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Mccreath is a veteran web engineer and product-minded technologist with over two decades working on the web and 11 years of recent professional experience across design-driven agencies and developer platforms. Based in San Francisco, he has led client-facing engineering at Mule Design Studio, supported customer experience and partner engineering at Slack, and now runs his own independent practice delivering practical, production-ready web solutions. His background blends a BFA in Studio Art with deep front-end craftsmanship—treating code as the final design check and a tool for validating research and IA decisions. Known for bridging design and engineering, he excels at translating visual and UX intent into robust HTML5/CSS3 and JavaScript deliverables while advising on CMS and integration choices. Colleagues value his long-term commitment to the web and his habit of leaning into the “final mile” of projects where polish and reliability matter most. He is currently self-employed and not seeking job offers, focusing instead on select client work and independent projects.
