Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolM Johns is a Data Architect with 14 years of experience designing and operating large-scale data platforms, currently leading data strategy at SafeLease in Austin. He brings deep hands-on expertise in Scala, Spark, SQL and streaming systems, having built ELT pipelines, real-time ingestion, and geospatial processing at companies like Mothership and Artemis Health. As an early technical hire and co-founder-level leader, he has repeatedly moved systems from Postgres and Redshift to Spark/Databricks and Snowflake to handle terabyte-scale workloads. He combines platform-building skills—Airbyte, dbt, Kafka, Kubernetes—with operational rigor, including SOC/HIPAA/HITRUST audit processes and production ML model serving. Colleagues rely on him to bootstrap teams and standardize data products that enable fast analytics and cost-tracking. He’s equally comfortable optimizing low-level database designs and shepherding data programs through growth stages, a breadth shaped by years of consulting and infrastructure roles.

Many of Grant and Clay's clients wanted to use the fantastic FontAwesome Icon Font, but didn't want to make their users download more icons than necessary. Icnfnt was originally a weekend project built to solve this problem. Since it worked so well, Grant and Clay decided to put it online for anyone to use. Built with Angular.js, Bootstrap, Flask, FontForge, and lots of pizza.
