I see only one good solution:
The dev lead was the first technical person, so he knows the history and understands the business needs best.
So convince the founders that he should become the product manager (work on deciding features), but stop coding. Not get involved in the how (technical decisions), but only the why (what to build).
- arenaninja 8y agoThis is something I can agree with. I worked with someone like OP describes but with the added side effect that he had management's ear by complaining about every developer without their knowledge. I left and have no regrets, but I agree that sometimes people could bring value by being involved in non-technical product decisions
