Product Engineer

This article argues that product-minded engineers, who focus on the 'why' behind features as much as the technical 'how', are crucial, especially for startups. It contrasts this with larger companies where product thinking is often outsourced to Product Managers. The author explores the difficulty of hiring and cultivating such engineers, lists common traits (like strong communication and business understanding), and suggests ways to develop a product mindset.
