Thinking of moving from Software Development to Product Management, but confused about where to start?

I’ve made this transition myself Engineer → Product Manager, building products used at scale and founding an AI startup. In this session, I’ll help you cut through the noise and create a clear, realistic plan to switch into PM.


What we’ll cover:

  1. Is PM the right role for you? (brutally honest reality check)
  2. How to position your SDE experience as PM-relevant
  3. Resume & LinkedIn tweaks that actually matter
  4. Skills you already have vs. skills you need to build
  5. PM roles you should target (Platform / Tech / Growth / 0→1)
  6. A 90-day transition roadmap tailored to you


Who this is for:

  1. Software Engineers (0–8 yrs) exploring PM roles
  2. Engineers stuck in “PM interviews but no offers”
  3. Anyone confused between PM, TPM, or EM paths
