Mostly stuff born out of technical ego ("_Our_ problems require a solution that isn't off the shelf"). It's usually been a mistake. Some examples: - Shitty worse Airflow/Step Functions (MedTech startup, FinTech startup). - Shitty worse AWS Athena (Green Energy startup) - Shitty worse Supergraph (FinTech startup) - Shitty worse...idk PlayFab? We attempted to rebuild every single component of PlayFab, but custom, and before we had any users (Games startup) Would be happy to talk about any if there's interest. Those are just the most egregious. edit Worth noting I suppose I didn't follow your prompt exactly, as I was not a founder at any of these startups. Consistently engineer #2-3, behind a technical cofounder. So I tried and failed at steering away from building these solutions. |
