I don't think you are wrong at all. As we are all founders with an OK salary and this is our area of expertise, so we're able to take advantage of our previous experiences and reap the benefits. We're probably uniquely positioned here.

I had massive issues at my previous employer with Bazel. They did not try to make Bazel work for non-SREs, which as you can imagine didn't work very well. So it's definitely not a silver bullet!

We should probably write a blog post about our setup!
