Subscribe to a creative engineer & artist-centric technologist

Creative engineering blends technical engineering skills with design, art, and user experience to produce products that are functional, aesthetic, and human-centered. It is ideal for those who:

• Think visually and systematically
• Enjoy building products people touch and feel
• Thrive on prototype-to-production workflows
• Want to merge artistic sensibility with technical excellence

• Strong front-end, mobile, and full-stack engineering (React, Flutter, Next.js)
• Deep interest in architecture, visual arts, and user experience
• Experience with AI prototyping, creative tooling, and UI-heavy applications
• Photographer/artist with aesthetic taste, comfortable with iterative design
• Startup experience, thriving in 0 → 1 product environments

1. Frontend/Interaction Engineer at Design-Driven Companies
   
   • Build polished, delightful UI/UX for consumer apps or creative tools.
   • Work closely with designers to bring interactive experiences to life.
   • Focus on performance, animation, and usability.

2. Creative Technologist
   
   • Prototype and ship interactive, visually compelling products.
   • Use emerging tech (AI, WebGL, AR/VR, canvas) to build novel interfaces.
   • Often sits between engineering and design teams.
   • Example: Creative Technologist at a digital agency, museum, or an innovation lab.
3. Prototyping Engineer (Rapid Product Development)
   
   • Take early product ideas and turn them into interactive prototypes.
   • Focus on experimentation, speed, and user testing.
   • Ideal in small startups, labs, or R&D teams.
   • Example: Early-stage startup engineer for an AI tool, or at Google Creative Lab.
4. Mobile Product Engineer (Design-Heavy)
   
   • Build mobile apps with exceptional design and animations.
   • Craft art-centric or photography-related apps.
   • Example: Engineer for VSCO, Halide, or wellness/meditation apps with premium design.
5. Developer Advocate / Design Engineer
   
   • Build and document creative coding tools for other developers.
   • Create demo apps, technical documentation, and showcase the capabilities of SDKs.
   • Example: Developer Relations Engineer for graphics libraries, AR/VR SDKs, or design frameworks.
6. Computational Designer
   
   • Use programmatic methods to generate art, design, or architecture outputs.
   • Work on generative design systems, creative coding, and interactive installations.
   • Example: Work with architecture firms, design studios, or generative art platforms.
7. Product Engineer for Artistic/Creative Platforms
   
   • Build tooling for artists, photographers, or creators (e.g., marketplaces, creative collaboration tools).
   • My understanding of artistic workflows directly improves user experience.
   • Example: Building a platform like Are.na, Artsy, or an artist residency management platform.

I work with companies through a monthly subscription model that includes:

• $2,000 - $30,000 monthly fee (scaled based on company stage and scope)
• Small equity stake with each partner to align our long-term interests
• Creative consultant role serving as the overarching glue layer at your company
• Mutual commitment to care deeply about what we're building together

This structure provides both parties with the confidence and sense of ownership needed to create something truly meaningful.

I build human-centered, design-forward products that merge engineering and art, specializing in interactive, visually compelling interfaces for creative tools and consumer apps.
