About
I’m Chris McInnes, a hands-on CTO and technology executive based in Sydney with 15+ years of experience building and scaling SaaS, marketplace, mobile, IoT, and AI/data platforms. I’ve led enterprise transformation and global growth—from startup formation and capital raising through enterprise systems delivery and acquisition—while staying deeply involved in architecture, engineering execution, and product strategy.
I enjoy turning complex technology and data problems into practical outcomes: modernising platforms, improving delivery performance, and delivering measurable business value. Highlights from my background include scaling engineering teams and SaaS platforms, leading major ERP implementations, and deploying AI/ML automation to improve operational efficiency and touchless processing outcomes for freight and document workflows.
