Top Founders · Product vs. Engineering: The surprising way to create alignment in 2023 · 11 Jul 2023 podcast

check it out right now at getlatka.com hi everyone i'm nikita gupta thank you for the introduction um i'm the co-founder and cto of simba not for the lion king but for symbiotic relationships um this is a very timely topic for us to talk about for me to talk about personally because at simba we just went through a whole new product revamp in the last 12 months

So I've got some insights to share.

We'll share kind of like what I found surprising, especially with dealing with my very small product team and a decent sized engineering team.

So before I begin, I just want to kind of get a pulse of the room here.

Who actually has a actual product team that is separate from their engineering team with product leaders, PMs, product engineers?

right?

Who here gets to wear multiple hats and kind of be a PM as well as a technical leader too?

Nice.

Yeah.

So we're kind of arranging here too.

We've actually had a lot of our team members wear multiple hats.

So even our customer success managers and head of customer success have also dipped into PM as well.

So I will go ahead and start talking about it.

So over the next 20 minutes, we'll

what does alignment mean?

So I'll share a little bit about our product journey, what didn't work for us, and some of the hard lessons that we learned.

I want to teach about how do we get to alignment, so how to evaluate the bottlenecks, how to understand different signals, and how to think of an implementation of a new strategy, and then also how to keep it sustainable.

So avoiding the bottlenecks for the future and how to keep the surprises at minimum and create a sustainable plan.

Does that sound good?

Cool.
