When VCs give you money you're required to spend it. Otherwise what the hell did you go out and raise more money for? More engineers is the easiest way to spin wheels and make money go away without a lot of questions being asked. It's one of the sad realities and cargo cults that we all participate in. Getting hired to a Haskell or Elixir/Erlang role in a bootstrapped company is the dream but there's only so many of those jobs out there right now, sadly.
