About Ry Daluch
// Technical Lead (CTO) & Software Engineer
Engineering Leadership & Mindset
I am a Technical Lead (CTO) and Full-Stack Systems Engineer with 8+ years of coding experience, specializing in robust web architectures, low-latency edge services, and high-concurrency Node.js / TypeScript systems.
As CTO at LocalGrew (localgrew.com) ↗, I guide the core system design, lead engineering sprints, and establish robust coding standards. In parallel, I bring nearly 3 years of experience as a startup co-founder translating 0-to-1 ideas into production reality, including pitching live on stage at Plug and Play Tech Center ↗.
Beyond commercial software, I believe in regional technology diplomacy and community mentorship. I serve as an organizer for the Lancang-Mekong Regional Cybersecurity Forum (lancangmekong-cambodia.com) ↗ (spanning 6 nations) and actively mentor aspiring Cambodian developers through MPTC Cambodia (mptc.gov.kh) ↗.
