BEHIND EVERY GREAT PRODUCT IS A PRODUCT MANAGER: CMU COMPUTER SCIENCE & BUSINESS

July 6th,

Product Managers are now as in-demand in the tech sector as software engineers once were, and they now command among the highest salaries in U.S. technology companies. These specialists who shepherd new products and releases to market are often called the CEOs of products and services. But finding good PMs — those with excellent technical chops, interpersonal skills, and business acumen — can be beyond challenging. And according to Burning Glass Technologies, more than 250,000 positions were open in the last year for hybrid jobs — occupations requiring a combination of programming skills and skills commonly found in design, data analysis, and marketing.
