You should see it no differently than any other stage of any other gig: look after your own interests first since no one else is going to. Do you have better options elsewhere? Then jump ship. What's in it for you to stick around? If nothing, start looking since you're likely to be out of a job soon anyway. If they're asking/expecting you to go above and beyond to try to turn things around, what's in it for you to do so? Without a sizable equity stake (i.e. being a co-founder... and even then, the equity isn't sounding very appealing given the current situation), the only question you should be asking is 'what's best for me?' when considering your options.
Of course there may be non-monetary mitigating factors that only you can evaluate: do you really enjoy the work? Are you learning skills that you and/or future employers will value? Is it easy work for the money? etc. But considering the fact that they've already gotten rid of all the other technical staff via layoffs and attrition, you should be well disabused of any illusion of loyalty on the employers part. You owe them none. And redoubling your efforts is likely to make the endgame twice as painful for you if you stick it out.
