Interactive Applications
& Real-Time 3D
I build and lead teams that build interactive products, from touch interfaces and data visualisation to performance-critical real-time 3D, across web, mobile, desktop and kiosk.
For much of my career that meant web technologies: touchscreen kiosks, large-scale installations, mobile and desktop apps, usually shipped to several platforms from one codebase. At Rotor Studios it’s Unreal Engine and C++. That covers vehicle configurators running in 300+ dealerships, streamed Unreal applications, browser-based 3D viewers and editors in WebGL and WebGPU, and Gaussian splat rendering.
I’m at my best leading hands-on: setting technical direction, working through the hardest problems myself, sweating the details that make an interface feel right, and helping engineers, designers and artists make good decisions quickly.

Work History
Rotor Studios (2020 – Present)
Head of Real-Time
I lead the real-time team at Rotor, delivering interactive products for global automotive brands including Toyota, Lexus, Nissan and Ford. Our work includes Toyota’s SR360 dealership configurator, its browser-based counterpart SR360 Lite, streamed configurators and multiplayer experiences, and R&D into Gaussian splatting and AI-driven interaction. I own technical direction and delivery, and stay hands-on across engine, browser and tooling work.
Imagination (2012-2018)
Technical Director
Built and led a multidisciplinary team delivering large-scale installations, VR/MR, mobile apps, touchscreen systems and real-time data visualisation, including GE’s Innovation Centres across Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Turkey. The work combined custom hardware, display systems and physical spaces, and had to be reliable in high-profile environments.
Grumpy Studio (Freelance / Contractor) (2018-2020)
Freelance Software Engineer
Designed and built interactive systems for agencies and clients, from real-time applications to public-facing software.
Earlier Roles (2006 – 2012)
