He joined McQuay International (now Daikin Applied Americas) in June 2001, supporting purchasing and development activities in the Chiller business. He held a series of development, new product introduction, and product management roles in the Air Side business before becoming the Sr. Director of Product Planning in 2010.

In 2012, Johnston became the Product General Manager for the Applied Terminal Business (W/GSHP, fan coils and unit ventilators). In 2019, Johnston became the GM in charge of transitioning to low GWP refrigerants and in 2022, Johnston became the VP of DAA’s Environmental Business Development Center.
