582: Product market fit is the hardest thing with Jon Gamble

Giant Robots Smashing Into Other Giant Robots

Chad dives into a different kind of development with Jon Gamble, CTO of Fordje, as they talk all things city code and construction.

Jon breakdowns the different types of construction Fordje covers and the clients they aim to serve, the reality of building a new starter business with a such a small team, the value of trust and communication when developing such a business, and how being the only developer on the team drives creativity and a desire to succeed.
