Jesse Riley

I’m Jesse, CTO of Lokiten Behavioral Health, where we’re revolutionizing mental healthcare by putting patients and therapists first, thoughtfully augmented by technology. With over two decades of experience building and scaling technology teams, I focus on creating solutions that enhance rather than replace the human element of care.

Throughout my career, I’ve guided more than 50 startups and built over 100 teams across organizations ranging from early-stage ventures to Fortune 500 companies. At Lokiten, I’m driven by the belief that technology should serve and empower our healthcare providers, making mental healthcare more accessible and effective while preserving the essential therapeutic relationship. My approach combines rigorous quality standards with a relentless focus on practical results – doing more of what works and less of what doesn’t.

When I’m not architecting human-centered healthcare solutions, you might find me on the racetrack, in the garage working on cars, or at the forge. This hands-on approach to problem-solving carries through to everything I do, whether it’s building supportive healthcare platforms or mentoring the next generation of technical leaders.
