What’s your biggest ‘aha!’ moment from collaborating with external tech talent?
I’ve been working with a small in-house dev team for a while, and recently we started collaborating with external engineers for the backend part of a logistics app. Honestly, I was skeptical at first — I thought onboarding outsiders would just slow us down. But a few weeks in, I realized they had this totally different approach to optimizing database queries that cut our load time almost in half. Made me think: what’s been your biggest “aha!” moment working with external tech folks?

For me it happened when we teamed up with backend pros from there . Our app had grown so messy over time, and we couldn’t figure out how to make it scale without breaking things. Their guys introduced modular architecture and automated testing routines that we’d honestly never thought of. It wasn’t just about coding — it was about structure, and it made maintenance so much easier in the long run.
