Top SchoolGeorge Walker is a seasoned technology leader and current CTO at CoinLion with 14 years of professional experience and a 20+-year background in C#/.NET development. He has led architecture and engineering for cryptocurrency trading and portfolio platforms, modernizing stacks with Go, .NET Core, and Kubernetes while previously building scalable mobile and backend systems for public safety and media platforms. Known for marrying hands-on engineering with team leadership, he has supervised Scrum teams, introduced TDD-style integration testing, and championed distributed frameworks like Microsoft Orleans. Based in Sioux Falls, he brings practical experience rescuing legacy systems (classic ASP/VBScript) into service-oriented, maintainable architectures. Off the beaten path, he candidly notes a lifelong tendency to accumulate unfinished side projects—an indicator of wide curiosity and many experimental prototypes behind his production successes.
