Renaud Rohlinger is a renderer and CTO based in Japan with a decade of professional experience delivering real-time graphics and interactive web experiences. He co-founded Utsubo and currently works at spawn.co, blending product leadership with hands-on rendering engineering. An active open-source contributor, Renaud has made notable improvements to three.js and the pmndrs ecosystem—enhancing WebGL/WebGPU renderers, geometry modifiers, and text rendering in react-three-fiber. His work spans full-stack build tooling, postprocessing, and performance-minded low-level renderer features such as MSAA and texture compression. Trained as an engineer in information systems, he brings a pragmatic mix of academic grounding and creative development honed through game and creative studio projects. Colleagues describe him as a developer who fixes hard renderer problems while also smoothing the build and UX surfaces that make 3D web projects ship.
