ExpressVPN's tech stack
"What does your tech stack look like?" is one of the most common questions we get from engineering applicants. It's not exactly simple to answer, but our vice president of engineering loves laying out the different possibilities!
Rather than having enterprise architects make these decisions, our teams are empowered to come up with their own ideas about which tools or technologies best fit a particular problem.
