Did your team work similar jobs as described in the book? That must be fantastic...

Entirely software, far above the Hardy Boys and Microkids in the stack. But the general pace and pressure of the story are still relatable.

I got the same vibes, by the way, from Season One of Halt and Catch Fire (recently and deservedly discussed here https://qqrl.tk/item?id=47056314).

I can't confirm it, but I think a few of the scenes from Halt and Catch Fire come from Soul of a New Machine.
