Good writing, but I'd not use express for any kind of project.

If you want a real stack use something like Adonis or Nest which have been built to create application/api at scale.

By default, NestJs uses Express under the hood, so at least having good knowledge in Express, for me, may help in understanding and using NestJs for large scale apps.
As for AdonisJs, it looks very promising, since it is similar to Laravel for PHP. Having used Laravel in my last project, I think I can get started relatively quickly with AdonisJs. I just want to be convinced that this framework is really reliable, because I don't know, I always feel hesitant about it.
