Snippet: Learning Engineering Requirements From RoboCon
from The Decode Diary · host Ray Low
One of the most underrated skills an engineer can have is the ability to understand engineering requirements. While it may seem simple on paper, in practice, each requirement is often intertwined with a list of others, which can lead to complications. Consequently, some companies have dedicated roles for engineers to manage these requirements. Nava acquired this skillset at RoboCon, and I believe that any engineer who has participated in similar competitions could also learn it. Comprehending the constraints and limits within which a product is being developed can mitigate many issues further down the line. Ultimately, for entrepreneurs, it boils down to understanding the customers' needs.
