Always Forward
Roman Grant
I’m a cross-functional program leader with 10+ years of experience delivering complex product, design, and technical programs across global teams.
I thrive at the intersection of product, engineering, design, and business, where technical execution and strategic alignment come together to create real-world impact.
Alongside my corporate work at eBay, Atlassian, IBM, and the C1 Innovation Lab (HCSC), I’ve also founded DesignOps As A Service, launched Yarn Over Hook, and published The Trust Engine, a playbook for collaborative team building.
My work centers on simplifying complexity, scaling execution, and empowering teams to deliver meaningful outcomes.
If you share a passion for building, learning, and delivering meaningful work — I’d love to connect.
