Startups are quietly replacing entire product teams with a single role: the product engineer. One person who decides what to build, designs how it works, and ships the code. Companies like PostHog and Intercom are already hiring for it. While everyone fights over saturated software engineering roles, this hybrid title has almost no competition and serious upside.

Why I Made This Video
Most engineers are competing for the same saturated roles without realizing that startups want something different. Product engineers own the full loop from customer to code, and if you combine that with AI skills, you become incredibly hard to replace.
