Yuna<p>Product vs Tech: The Endless Battlefield</p><p>The war between Product & Engineering? It's not inevitable. It's a choice. A choice to overload engineers with business problems instead of letting them solve technical ones. A choice to force cross-functional teams without aligning timelines.</p><p>And the result?<br>❌ Slow product development<br>❌ Fragile systems<br>❌ Burnt-out engineers<br>❌ Sky-high costs</p><p>We tell engineers to "understand the business".<br>But we never ask business to "understand engineering".</p><p>We train engineers to sell priorities instead of owning their craft.<br>Software development becomes a negotiation instead of an engineering discipline.</p><p>And then we wonder why systems rot. 🤦♂️</p><p>"You Build It, You Run It".<br>"You Code It, You Ship It".</p><p>Buzzwords that actually mean:<br>🤑 "You Do Everything, We Cut Costs."</p><p>Would you hire an musician to cook, clean, and build your house?<br>No? Then why expect engineers to be full-stack, infra experts, DevOps, security pros & business strategists simultaneously?</p><p>💡 Specialization isn't old-fashioned. It's necessary.<br>💡 Engineering, UI/UX, Infrastructure. They are services to each other.<br>💡 Stop mixing worlds. Let experts master their craft.</p><p>🛑 Hiring isn't broken because of a "talent shortage".<br>It's broken because of delusional expectations.</p><p>You want quality products?<br>✔ Let engineers engineer.<br>✔ Let designers design.<br>✔ Let infrastructure teams handle infra.</p><p>If people aren't drowning in work that isn't theirs, they will naturally grow beyond their roles.</p><p>But force it?<br>You'll get:<br>❌ Burnouts<br>❌ Legacy code<br>❌ A team that stops caring</p><p>I grew up in tech step by step. The enforcement to do everything at once blocked & blinded me for years.</p><p>Fix the environment or enjoy the chaos you created. Your choice. 🎤</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Engineering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Engineering</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ProductDevelopment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProductDevelopment</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/TechLeadership" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TechLeadership</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/SoftwareQuality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoftwareQuality</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/LetEngineersEngineer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LetEngineersEngineer</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>programming</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Leadership" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Leadership</span></a></p>
