Summary
Richard Gustin is a results-driven Chief Technology Officer and senior full-stack/systems engineer based in Brisbane with over two decades of hands-on experience building scalable, cloud-native platforms. He specialises in AI-driven sales automation, real-time workflow orchestration, and resilient infrastructure—having architected a multi-tenant PaaS for BellaSales that moved the company from B2C to B2B2C and built 24/7 persistent browser automation on Kubernetes, NATS JetStream and Temporal.io. Previously he led high-performance GraphQL and data propagation systems at Leonardo.ai (ChronoGraph) and has a track record of rearchitecting backend systems, large-scale DevOps transformations and delivering mission-critical systems for defence, finance and enterprise customers. Richard combines deep operational expertise (master-master enterprise Kubernetes, large container fleets, Temporal workflows) with product-focused innovation, and often bridges no-code/AI workflows to practical commercial outcomes. Colleagues describe him as an engineering leader who still codes in the weeds and turns complex distributed challenges into repeatable, secure platforms.
