Summary
Jamie Owen is a Technical Lead and multidisciplinary software engineer with 18 years’ experience delivering interactive web, mobile and installation projects across startups, creative studios, agencies and finance. For the past 11+ years he’s worked primarily as an independent consultant and technical director, leading projects from rapid prototypes to large-scale component-driven systems—most notably complex WebGL and 3D pipelines, headless CMS integrations and multi-screen museum installations. He blends design sensitivity with engineering rigor, routinely collaborating with creative directors and design teams to turn procedural animation, generative design and rich interaction into production-ready products. Comfortable across front-end, WebGL, Node/Python tooling and hardware/display considerations, he often reduces bespoke creative briefs into reusable, scalable component systems. Based in London, he brings a practitioner’s curiosity—having built tooling for 3D asset pipelines and compression algorithms that made high-fidelity interactive experiences feasible on mobile.
