CTO at LOKE Digital
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDennis Williams is a seasoned technology leader and longtime CTO based in Melbourne with 20+ years of experience designing and delivering software across desktop, web and mobile platforms. He blends hands-on engineering—spanning VB6, Classic ASP, C#/.NET, Node.js (since v0.6), Typescript, React and Go—with strategic architecture, team leadership and code review. At LOKE he moved from prolific coding to guiding tech direction and scaling engineering processes while still diving into code or architecture when needed. His background in Computer Systems Engineering gives him a systems-first view of integrations, networking and embedded concerns beyond typical application development. Comfortable in roles from sole developer to distributed team lead and contractor, he has practical experience with many databases and messaging systems (Postgres, Redis, RabbitMQ, DynamoDB, SQS). He’s pragmatic about technology evolution—early adopter of SPA frameworks, a Typescript evangelist, and an engineer who remembers the realities of shipping cross-browser apps.
