Summary
John Grant is a VP of Engineering with 15 years of experience building interactive computer graphics, web applications, and AR experiences from low-level graphics APIs to user-facing WebXR. Based in Los Angeles, he blends hands-on engineering and team building to ship full-stack systems, developer automation, and CI/CD-driven infrastructure for consumer-facing products and media platforms. His career spans startups and enterprise teams—including leadership roles at Fabric and Warner Bros.—where he designed serverless backends, data pipelines, and immersive web experiences that bridge cameras, DSP/GPU compute, and browser UIs. Known for turning complex visualization and simulation challenges into pragmatic product features, he also brings research-rooted expertise from VR and defense simulation work and a curious, maker mindset hinted at by a GitHub bio that cheerfully invites "Let's make an app!"
