Tony Johnson is a seasoned full-stack developer and systems engineer with nine years of documented software experience and a long track record in infrastructure dating back to the 1990s. Based in Sydney, he blends modern JavaScript stacks (React/Redux, Node, GraphQL) and Solidity smart-contract work with deep Linux systems administration, networking and email/website/DNS operations. As CEO of The Open Source Project and a long-standing mentor at Code.Sydney, he pairs hands-on development with teaching and technical leadership across startups and product-focused teams. His background includes domain-specific engineering—building oil-and-gas risk modeling tools—and running ISP-grade data centres, migrations and disaster-recovery solutions. Comfortable from UI design (SASS, Material-UI) to backend services and blockchain, he’s unusually cross-disciplinary: an archaeologist-turned-developer who applies analytical rigor from fieldwork to complex engineering problems.
