I had a first time similar related experience with a startup in Tokyo. The company was focused on IoT related projects and started by purely business oriented individuals with not much tech experience. Their strategy was to hire as many "foreign" engineers to focus on the development while they push out for investment and business opportunities. Unfortunately, there was an internal clash between the engineers and the business side over code quality vs just pushing some buggy IoT related application into production which led to over half the engineering team quit in under 6 months I being one of them. Somehow though they are still afloat a year after using the barely working buggy app that we finished before we left.
