What is a customer worth at the end of the day?

Surprisingly QA is the most overlooked function I’ve seen with small tech teams.

It’s not their fault…

They’ve just got limited resources and they’ve also got to move the needle.

Seb articulates a great strategy to foster a TDD driven culture, workflow and set of tools within a small tech team.

Even if you’ve got limited resources

You can still work towards building a stable app

Build reporting so you can quickly resolve bugs/issues

Overall, build a better expereince for your customer.

It’s safe to say that I had an absolute ball speaking to Seb about his journey and dissecting key insights.

"They genuinely felt like development partners as opposed to a company that we had contracted."

We set an ambitious target of hiring 11 senior engineers within a month. To my surprise, we achieved that. During the entire process, PICWA felt like an in-house talent team and worked closely with us to find the right fit. Fast forward 4 years and we're still working with the same team PICWA provided and have no idea how we'd operate without them
