Ashish Agrawal — Engineering Manager
I am an Engineering Manager with 10+ years of experience designing, building, and scaling modern web platforms. My technical background spans React, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, Meteor.js, Vue.js, relational/NoSQL databases, and cloud infrastructure on AWS. I’ve led delivery of highly scalable systems, implemented CI/CD pipelines using AWS and GitHub Actions, and improved performance and reliability through database optimization, caching techniques, security best practices, and platform observability. Beyond hands-on engineering, I specialize in building high-performing teams and scalable engineering processes. I have extensive experience driving Agile practices (Scrum/Kanban), managing delivery workflows using tools like Jira, and ensuring alignment between engineering, product, design, and business stakeholders. As an EM, I focus on people growth, mentoring engineers, resolving technical blockers, hiring and onboarding talent, and fostering a culture of ownership, transparency, and continuous improvement. I enjoy tackling complex architectural challenges, aligning teams toward shared goals, and delivering business impact through thoughtful technical decision-making. I believe technology evolves quickly, but strong fundamentals, curiosity, and adaptability enable consistent success across tools and languages. Outside of work, I’m an avid traveler and enjoy exploring new places (and new tech). Always open to good conversations, meaningful connections, and opportunities to collaborate.
