I've been an early engineer in multiple start-ups, have co-founded 2 startups, and about a year ago, took a position where my primary role was to in-house logistics software in the healthcare space being developed by a 3rd party for about 4 years.

To succeed, you need a founder-type person IMO, who's full-stack, and has built great engineering teams. Hard to find, but possible.

The company I joined was also not a software/tech company, and they put the trust in me to define our engineering policies, how product-management happens, and put an emphasize of knowledge transfer for my first 3 months.
