Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Mcgrath is a product and engineering leader with 11 years of experience who has founded and scaled companies to tens of millions in ARR and now leads RMI’s Digital Innovation Lab to build climate intelligence products. He combines hands-on software development roots at The New York Times and WHOI with product leadership at Entelo and sustainability product roles at AWS, where he helped launch the AWS Customer Carbon Footprint Tool and the Sustainability Pillar. Comfortable moving between startup scrappiness and large-org operations, he has a track record of turning mission-driven ideas—like a civic ride-hailing app for voters—into deployed, impact-focused technology. Based in San Francisco, he blends climate and renewable energy passion with deep product-building chops and mentorship experience for early-stage teams. An unexpected throughline is his early work in journalism and language tech, giving him a rare lens on storytelling, data visualization, and civic tech that informs his approach to climate products.
