Shipping as a Team of One
How I structure my week when I'm the engineer, the designer, the support team, and the salesperson.
Most of my career has been on small teams or as a solo engineer for a client. The patterns I've picked up don't show up in the productivity blogs, but they save me weekly.
Pick one thing. Ship it. Move on. The job of a solo engineer isn't to do many things at once — it's to finish one thing at a time and not lose your footing on the small stuff.
Set boundaries with clients early and lovingly. Most timeline pain comes from saying yes to the wrong thing in the first ten minutes of a kickoff call.
