As a solo dev/founder I had little choice but be a full stack engineer. As long as you don't go overboard with the complexity and enjoy learning, it is very feasible to master the entire stack sufficiently. For me keeping things simple is having a single repo, everything in TypeScript and using popular libraries and frameworks. No kubernetes but a single beefy server with a hot spare. I think being responsible for the entire stack is what makes it so interesting.
