What possible advantage would "real" devops infrastructure provide? Unless you're doing something so far out if the ordinary (or infrastructure is your advantage) there is zero value in building your own early on. You're suggesting they find a CTO/architect/php developer, all in one... That's not reality.

In a big comanies all three roles need a very different skill set, because of politics, splitting saying and doing and so on. In a start up environments skills needed for all three roles are very similar.
