Question from Paul S.

"Who owns the code, infrastructure, and accounts?"

3 min read
Working Together

You do.

You're paying me to build things, but they are your things. I'm here to help you, to set things up, and to maintain them for a while, but it's your company.

Why You Need Ownership

If I own the infrastructure and the code, that creates risk for you. I might like the control, but that's not good for you.

So yes, everything we subscribe to should be yours:

  • Every account
  • Every repo
  • All infrastructure

I'll set them up, but they live under your control.

Planning for Growth

My job is to get you to a point where a team can take it further. That means you need ownership from day one.
