Handcrafted luxury jewelry with emerging technical operations
VAHAN is a 56-year-old jewelry designer and manufacturer operating out of New York, but the tech stack—Node.js, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, ClickHouse, AWS—signals an unexpected engineering presence. Active projects around real-time analytics pipelines and backend systems, paired with hiring acceleration and documented scale and architectural challenges, suggest the company is building internal operational infrastructure beyond traditional jewelry retail.
VAHAN designs and handcrafts luxury jewelry in-house, working primarily with diamonds, 14k gold, sterling silver, and pearls. The company sells both direct and through retail partnerships. Founded in 1968 and based in Port Chester, New York, the organization runs a small team of 11–50 people, with recent hiring focused on senior technical and product roles. The company has publicly identified scale challenges and technical debt, indicating a phase of internal modernization alongside its core jewelry operations.
VAHAN runs Node.js, PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, and ClickHouse on AWS infrastructure. Design tools include Adobe Illustrator, Figma, Photoshop, and Sketch.
