Hello first world HN readers! I am the tech lead at a development shop in Mumbai, India, that I started with my childhood friends two years ago. The generalizations that exist about software development in my country are quite valid, and are one of the main reasons we sought to get into this business in the first place - to provide value that is otherwise scarce. If you or your company is looking to outsource to India, please feel free to get in touch with me, I'm confident I will be able to objectively assuage any reservations that you may have about the work we do. We are reasonably expensive compared to other developers here, but our work generally speaks well for itself in comparison.
