Donovan Hiland is a Head of Technology with a decade of hands-on experience building and architecting full-stack web applications from startup studios to client engagements. He rose through engineering and instructional roles at DevMountain and product studio Ravn, where he now guides technical strategy while still shipping code. His background spans Node, React, Apollo and API-driven back ends, with a track record delivering delightful user experiences for clients like Redbox and Verizon. He also mentors and teaches, having designed curriculum and coached students to accelerate real-world skill development. Based in Lehi, Utah, Donovan pairs practical engineering leadership with a curiosity for visualization and tooling—evident from early projects that mapped social data onto interactive 3D globes. Colleagues rely on him to turn ambiguous problems into elegant, production-ready solutions.
