> What if the company actually hires on one or two engineers to build it? Would that company have made the jump from "non-tech" to "tech"?

Can't speak directly for Chuck, but probably not. Does the company see the software they build as a living organism that needs care and maintenance, as well as adaptation to new technologies and platforms, and do they expect to make more software to solve other business problems in the future?

Hard to tell when hiring one or two engineers what the company's longer-term intentions are.
