> is there a way for me to introduce solutions to problems that may require more technical expertise, to better not only myself but the company as well?

Please do not think this way. You're there to solve business problems. Not to build solutions to scalability problems that don't exist. I've had to inherit the code of people who think like this and it's horrible.

Think about all the problems you could be solving for the company and what those problems _actually are_ and what the actual constraints are. If you can't find any satisfactory career growth in solving those problems then you probably should find a job that does have the kinds of problems you think working on would provide the career growth you want.
