Top SchoolWill Mcmahan is a New York–based product lead and designer with 12 years crafting digital experiences across product, brand, and front-end engineering. He blends information design and visual communication with hands-on front-end skills (HTML, CSS/Sass, JavaScript, Git) to ship polished interfaces for web and iOS. As a former thoughtbot contributor he added RTL and visual grid support to the popular Neat grid framework and automated build workflows for Bitters, reflecting a strong open-source and tooling mindset. His roles have spanned UX leadership, iOS prototyping, and team hiring and art direction, most recently guiding product at Mæster Design. Trained at SCAD in graphic design and illustration, he pairs craft-driven aesthetics with pragmatic development practices. He’s equally comfortable sketching brand systems as he is building reproducible front-end workflows, a combination that accelerates both design clarity and engineering handoff.
