30 people? Could you list what sort of team breakdown you are seeing for this?

I'm really struggling to see how to maintain/develop and work on such a complex problem at that scale with a team of only 30.

When Facebook bought Instagram, weren't they running with something like 15 people?

Sure I guess they were small but their problem space seems to be similar to a more standard CRUD. I could be wrong but the one to many and many to one relations within Twitter seem much harder (at least from my perspective).

Both are super tough at the scale they run :)
