Step 1: Ensure that you know who the product is for and why people will want to use it. I’ll never forget the day when I suggested to the product manager of a brand-new healthcare product to prioritise its features. The individual looked at me slightly bewildered and replied, “I can’t. They are all high-priority.” Prioritisation requires deciding how important an item is.

Three years later I became a web application engineer at a startup that built software for military and private industries.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

“What do you do?” I failed to properly answer this when I first became a product manager. A polite introduction became an incoherent rambling of endless bullet points.
