In any industry, if you want a team to work well, you have to have someone with both authority and hands-on experience who’s responsible for providing day-to-day guidance. Sometimes that person is called a “supervisor” or “tech lead” instead of “manager”, although this typically implies some division of responsibilities as well; no reason the person providing guidance necessarily has to be the same person reporting to leadership or hiring and firing.
