I'm in this picture, but I also learnt over the years that sometimes it doesn't take a lot of knowledge to be the company expert on a topic. It can easily boil down to having asked another company about some information, or having seen something before.
And yet I doubt myself on knowing enough about things I do on a daily basis and have been doing professionally for years ๐คท
As long as you acknowledge your doubt and recognize how good you're really doing your job, that should be a good thing. Just don't dwell on it.
or joining the company under the premise to "self educate" on the topic, resulting in being the only person knowing anything about that topic.
