NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 20, 2025--

Mongoose, the Digital Product Development Platform transforming how regulated industries build and scale digital products, today announced the appointment of Scott Johnston as Chief Technology Officer. The appointment strengthens Mongoose’s leadership at a pivotal moment as the company expands adoption of its CX Product Suite for Payers — helping health plans drive member engagement, digital adoption, and experience innovation powered by AI.

Johnston spent more than sixteen years at Google, where he created some of the company’s most iconic products — including Google Drive, Meet, Chat, and Voice — platforms that now serve billions of users worldwide. His arrival signals Mongoose’s next phase of growth: a deep investment in Agentic AI, designed to reimagine the entire digital product development process for the enterprise.

“Scott has built products that shaped the modern internet,” said Mark Nathan, Founder and CEO of Mongoose. “When I built my last company, we created twenty digital products in six years. At Mongoose, we built better versions of those products at a much lower cost and effort. Scott’s expertise in AI ensures that we can stay ahead of the market, and his experience bringing products like Google Docs and Workspace to billions of users is exactly what will help Mongoose deliver it at scale.”

At Google, Johnston was known for blending product vision with operational precision — a combination that mirrors Mongoose’s mission to bring consumer-grade creativity and enterprise-grade rigor together in one platform. His background in collaborative computing, AI-driven productivity, and large-scale system design will guide Mongoose’s evolution as it accelerates adoption across healthcare, life sciences, and other highly regulated sectors.

“I’ve spent my career helping teams bring bold ideas to life at scale,” said Scott Johnston, CTO of Mongoose. “I’ve seen what it takes to scale digital experiences to billions of users. What Mongoose is doing is the next leap. We are taking the sophistication of enterprise-grade systems and pairing it with the speed and creativity of AI. It’s the kind of transformation that will change how entire industries build.”

Johnston joins Chief Product Officer Jyoti Mokal, whose cross-disciplinary background in product strategy, engineering, and customer experience design has been instrumental in defining Mongoose’s platform roadmap. Together with Nathan, the trio forms a leadership team that blends deep product craftsmanship with a shared obsession for scale.

“Scott’s addition completes a leadership architecture built for what’s next,” added Mokal. “Mark’s entrepreneurial velocity, Scott’s world-class scale experience, and our Agentic AI foundation position us to change how complex industries build digital products and experiences.”

With Johnston’s appointment, Mongoose continues its momentum toward becoming the defining AI platform for digital product development — combining modular architecture, human-in-the-loop AI, and enterprise-grade delivery to unlock innovation without compromise.
