@ghorwood Even better they should recognize that they need a data architect or data engineer or a DBA. These are specialists that actually know how to do this stuff.

And this is a bad sign that they probably don't have Ops specialists, either, and then I'd be REALLY worried about security and system maintenance. If you get on a project where they expect developers to just be generalists and do other people's jobs that they aren't trained for, you should run.

@richard_merren it's the result of the rise of 'full stack', where 'full stack' means '90% frontend and 10% everything else'.

tbf, it's unreasonable for anyone to be *really* 'full stack'. colour-correcting an image and writing a reverse proxy and vastly different skillsets.

@ghorwood Absolutely. There are too many buzzwords like "full stack" that translate to "we are willing to cut corners so expect lots of crises and emergencies."
