Linus Norton is a Technical Lead with 15 years’ experience architecting resilient, high-availability systems and building productive Agile teams across public and private sectors. Currently leading engineering at the UK Ministry of Justice, he blends hands-on engineering standards—TDD, good OOD, CI/CD and DevOps—with people-first leadership to align teams and reliably deliver complex projects. He has founded a blockchain rail ticketing startup, led CTO roles that migrated legacy stacks to microservices on AWS, and scaled multiple engineering teams under tight deadlines. A pragmatic polyglot comfortable from Scala microservices to TypeScript tooling, he pairs strong engineering craft with a history of open-source tooling for transit data and a knack for turning arcane integration challenges into robust APIs.
