Heyo, I'm Johnny 🤘🏼

Full stack engineer, creative technologist, and computer artist with 12+ years architecting and shipping high-scale web systems.

Recently led engineering at Manifold.xyz for nearly five years, building a platform used by thousands of creators and powering high-profile bespoke launches for clients like Christie's, Refik Anadol, and Edward Snowden — handling thousands of concurrent users under extreme load. Previously grew from Front End Engineer to Senior Software Engineer at Refinery29, building the content tools behind one of the biggest women's media brands on the web.

I also make music and art as White Lights (2M+ streams on Spotify).

What I'm up to

Open to Senior Full Stack Engineer, Senior Web Developer, and Engineering Manager roles. Looking to drive technical strategy, mentor engineers, and ship products at the intersection of engineering and culture.
