"Lorong Product" Podcast Episode 18 - Hardware Product Management: Turning Designs Into Devices

Описание: Software can be iterated with a click, but not hardware. Adhiraj reveals how product management changes when the product you build sits in someone’s home, not just on a screen. In this episode, we explore what it means to build physical products end-to-end, from working with factories, to navigating design and manufacturing constraints. If you’ve only seen PM through a software lens, this conversation reveals a completely different side of the industry.
