I see, thank you for clarifying. That's an interesting observation, I feel like there is a story behind it. :) I definitely agree that as any small start-up grows, the security controls become very painful, especially for those folks who felt "the freedom" before the controls were established. That said, would the picture look better without platform teams? The security controls would need to be there anyway, and I'd personally prefer to use some self-serve, platform-ish solution built by a team of software engineers that would do call auditing, verification, etc., rather than raising a JIRA ticket with some ops folks who'd do the security-sensitive thing for you.

> I feel like there is a story behind it. :) Ahah. 100%. Honestly I am in a great conflict right now. My current role is in a platform team (first time here, previously it was only product positions). And I'm responsible for implementing unified company wide authorization including client libraries and integration with all web frameworks in use. I feel vast empathy for product engineers having to migrate and integrate the new system. It has artificial intended bumps I have to enforce and doesn't like personally.
