Product strategist, systems thinker, and design leader helping organizations turn complex visions into focused, everyday work.
Since 2010, Josh has helped mission-driven organizations, global brands, and public institutions figure out how to translate ambition into executable systems.
He specializes in taking sprawling, ambitious goals and organizing the people, tools, and systems needed to operate with clarity and continuity.
Whether he is mapping global human rights data or aligning teams at a massive enterprise, his focus is the same: ensuring strategy holds under pressure.
Building Systems at Scale. Josh has spent over a decade guiding major initiatives for highly complex organizations. His institutional work is about taking competing priorities and creating clear, unified paths forward, ensuring diverse teams are communicating, aligned, and equipped to execute the broader mission.
Partnered with Nike Innovation team to set product direction, align goals, and evolve digital commerce through scalable design systems.
Directed product design to translate information strategy into cohesive experiences, building useful tools for a global audience.
Steered a strategic AI initiative to improve organizational efficiency, shaping the product vision and aligning research, design, and implementation to translate complex data into a usable system.
Launched new creative initiatives for Waze and implemented growth strategies for Google Wallet and YouTube TV.
Beyond client work, Josh has founded digital platforms that apply product strategy and systems thinking to complex global issues.
Loops is an interactive neuroscience platform that translates clinical mental health practices into accessible, gamified digital experiences. It combines rhythm-based breathing, dialectical exercises, and neural soundscapes into a cohesive suite of tools designed to support stress regulation, sustained attention, and emotional processing.
Maps for Humanity is a digital platform designed to track and document systemic human rights crises worldwide. It organizes fragmented reporting, NGO data, and open-source intelligence into a cohesive mapping system that surfaces patterns across conflict zones, humanitarian emergencies, and displacement events.
Holdings is a research and portfolio intelligence platform for individual investors. It helps users evaluate opportunities based on their investment style. The platform brings together fund positioning data, market context, and tailored briefings, giving individuals access to the tools institutions build internally or pay millions to use.
Mambu began as Josh's Carnegie Mellon thesis project, where he led design on a multidisciplinary team, and the work later grew into one of the world's leading fintech platforms.
“Mambu was one of the first companies to move banking software into the cloud. The team has built a highly composable product in a rapidly-growing market traditionally dominated by large, slow-moving vendors.”
Josh completed a year of service with City Year Detroit, an AmeriCorps organization. His work included coordinating logistics, supporting classroom instruction, leading after-school programs, and helping build housing in underserved communities. This experience continues to inform his interest in mission-driven work and institutions focused on long-term social impact.
