Senior Technical Executive & Technical Lead @ Outgrow | Leading a 16-engineer team | 8+ yrs MERN, Angular, AWS, Node.js | Building AI chatbots & RAG / LLM products

About

I'm a senior software engineer and technical lead with 8+ years building and scaling production web applications — and leading the teams that ship them. At Outgrow, I've grown from Full-Stack Developer to Technical Lead (with DevOps ownership) to Senior Technical Executive, where I now lead a 16-engineer team and own architecture, AWS infrastructure, and engineering strategy for high-traffic products serving hundreds of thousands of requests per day. What I focus on: • Team leadership & architecture — mentoring 16 engineers, driving code quality, system design, and on-time delivery across multiple products. • Full-stack engineering — MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) and Angular, REST API design, and performance optimization. • Cloud & DevOps — AWS (EC2, S3, CloudFront, Route53, Elastic Beanstalk, Lambda, ECR, ECS, Autoscaling), Docker, and CI/CD pipelines on GitLab. • Applied AI — building AI chatbots and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems that learn from documents, PDFs, URLs, and conversation history. Selected impact: • Integrated 40+ CRM tools into the Outgrow platform, directly increasing user traffic and engagement. • Architected high-traffic, production-ready systems handling hundreds of thousands of requests per day. • Delivered AI-powered chatbot products (Chatbotbuilder.net) using RAG for automated customer support. Tech I work with: JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, React, Angular, Express, MongoDB, MySQL, Elasticsearch, Redis, AWS, Docker, GitLab CI/CD, LLM APIs, vector / semantic search, and embeddings. Open to senior engineering and technical leadership roles. Let's connect.
