Funnily, a lot of people think they need to know how to code to become a PM:)
Well, as a Product Leader with 10 yrs+ of experience, let me break it to you:
You don't.
But yes, you need to be technical!
Wait let me explain,
Tech knowledge for PMs is not about writing code. It's about understanding systems.
→
Can you explain how a product works end-to-end? → Can you follow what your engineers are saying? Can you ask better questions when trade-offs are discussed?
→
That's the expectation.
Hope this infographic attached helps you even more in building that understanding.
