A follow-up to the Product Builder roadmap: Aakash Gupta published the full podcast and deep-dive article with HelloPM founder Ankit Shukla, who analyzed 12,500 PM job posts and found a new role hiding in them — Product Builder.
The piece covers whether the role is legit or a rebrand, who's hiring and what it pays, plus a four-part guide: what a Product Builder is, how to find AI problems worth solving, how to ship a production app with Claude Code, and how to land the role. Freshworks CPO Srini Raghavan predicts the title will replace engineer, designer, and PM within 5 years.
