Hey HN, I'm the author of this blog post.
In my experience there are two types of engineers: ones who care more about the code (code-first) and ones who care more about the product (product-first).
I strongly favor hiring and working with product-first engineers.
Curious what you think.
- dudul 5y agoAs long as the company doesn't treat engineers like code monkeys, sure. It is awful being an engineer who cares about the product but being part of an organization where engineers are never involved in product conversations.
- zachlloyd 5y agoCompletely agree. It's frustrating to be product focused when the company isn't.
