Should "Product Engineer" Be A Job Title? (with Phil Hornby)
Where should the line between product management and engineering sit? And in a world where AI is making it easier for anyone to build software, do we even need that boundary anymore? In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James is joined by Phil Hornby, product leadership coach,...

Engineering Management In Product Engineering (with Ryan Murphy)
What does engineering management look like in a world where AI can write much of the code, and engineers are increasingly expected to think like product managers? In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James is joined by Ryan Murphy, founder of EM Accelerator and Crying on the Sofa…

What Makes AI Code Production Ready?
AI can get you to something that looks finished remarkably quickly. But looking finished and being production-ready are not the same thing. In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James explores the gap between an AI-built prototype and software that is actually ready to run reliably…

When To Use AI In Product Engineering
AI can write code incredibly quickly. But simply using AI to make your existing software delivery process faster misses much of the opportunity. In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James looks at how AI changes Product Engineering when you treat it as a learning tool, rather than...

Giving Product Engineers Autonomy In Decision Making
How do you give engineers the freedom to make product decisions without expecting them to become product managers? And how can product managers make technical decisions without needing to become engineers? In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James explores how effective Product...

Accountability For Product Engineering Teams
How should we hold Product Engineering teams accountable when different kinds of work require completely different ways of working? In this episode, James explores why accountability needs to match the work being done, rather than being applied uniformly to an engineering team. For…

Outcome Driven Engineering Explained
What changes when you stop giving an engineering team features to deliver and instead give them an outcome to achieve? In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James explores Outcome-Driven Engineering: an operating model where product managers and engineers share accountability for...

When Your Product Roadmap Works Against You
In this episode of The Product Engineering Podcast, James explores The Roadmap Shield — what happens when the mechanisms designed to protect an engineering team from disruption also prevent it from responding to new information. Product roadmaps provide valuable stability. They protect teams from...

The Product Equivalent Of Technical Debt
Software teams are used to talking about technical debt, but products can accumulate another kind of debt too. Outcome debt builds up when features are shipped without confirming whether they achieved the result they were intended to produce. Over time, products become filled with decisions,...
-
Output Metrics vs Outcome Metrics
Engineering teams have access to more delivery data than ever. Jira can measure cycle time and velocity. GitHub can track pull requests and code changes. Deployment tools can show how often software reaches production and how reliably those releases perform. These metrics are useful, but they…

What Is Product Engineering?
What does product engineering actually mean, and how is it different from traditional software delivery? In this first episode, James Charlesworth explores the shift from roadmap-driven engineering to an approach where engineers share responsibility for product outcomes, not just delivering...
