Tom Will Lead This Launch — So I Quit Two Weeks Before 47 Calls Launch Disaster

Tom Will Lead This Launch — So I Quit Two Weeks Before. 47 Calls. Launch Disaster.
What happens when the person who built everything walks away? When the engineer who wrote every line of code decides she's had enough?
I spent two and a half years building the core infrastructure for our company's biggest product launch. I worked sixty-hour weeks, pushed fixes at midnight, and carried the entire technical vision on my shoulders. My manager Brad took credit for everything I built. Then two weeks before launch, they announced someone else as "lead engineer"—someone who'd been there six months and barely understood the codebase.
So I resigned. Two weeks notice. Right before the launch.
How I documented everything but kept the critical knowledge in my head
The moment they realized I was the only one who truly understood the system
What happened when launch day arrived and I wasn't there to fix things
The desperate calls, emails, and threats that followed
Why three senior engineers couldn't replace what one person knew
This isn't about sabotage. This is about what happens when companies take their best people for granted and only realize their value when they're gone.

Sometimes the best way to show your value isn't to fight for recognition. It's to walk away and let them discover what you were holding together all along.
