Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRanj Abass is a lean product engineer and founder with 14 years' experience building web-first products and leading small, high-retention engineering teams across startups and scale-ups in the UK. He blends hands-on full‑stack delivery with people leadership—having moved teams to CI/CD, serverless and AWS, designed systems that handle millions of events per day, and consistently shipped rapid MVPs and optimizations that drove measurable growth. As an engineering manager and technical lead he pairs product thinking with pragmatic simplicity, favoring non‑overengineered solutions and strong team culture over process for its own sake. He has a track record of translating customer needs into scalable features (RBAC, payments, analytics) while personally contributing to infra, API and frontend code. Unusually, he combines founder-level strategic collaboration with day-to-day development cadence, ensuring ideas are both shaped and shipped.
