When is the right time for a company to hire its first product person? Once they have product-market fit. That's when. If you're a founder and you're feeling that urge to hire a product person, here are some questions to ask yourself first. 1️⃣ What problem are you trying to solve by hiring a product person? "I don't have time to run product" - if you're pre-PMF, this is all you should be focused on. Don't delegate this! "We're not shipping fast enough" - this is a real problem, but often one of culture. Hiring a product person into a slow shipping, early stage organization is more likely to slow things down. "I don't have the skills I need to build product" - also a real problem, but one better solved by augmenting your skills through consultants and advisors 2️⃣ What will you be delegating to this person? If you're planning on delegating the whole product: don't. Once again, it's the founders' responsibility to find PMF, and delegating that to someone else creates all kinds of havoc. If you're planning on delegating purely execution work while you control the big picture, you're likely better off learning how to give more of this to your engineering team (they're probably pretty good at it already). 3️⃣ How will you judge success or failure for this person? Unless you can come up with a clear answer to question 2, and a metric to go along with it, it's probably not a great idea to hire someone. ________ 🔍 For a more in-depth version of this post, head on over to krasny(dot)co 📞 Want to have a no-strings-attached conversation with me about hiring product people, or other early-stage product challenges?

Hiring top-tier engineering talent can be hard. It’s even harder when you don't know what you're looking for. But, If you’re trying to build a world-class team, you need to be looking for world-class players. Here's what to look for: 1. Problem-solving skills 2. Curiosity 3. Ability to learn 4. Communication skills 5. Passion And if you are a startup, you need to be looking for something extra: 6. Flexibility 7. Willingness to work outside their comfort zone 8. Self-directed learning Remember, you might need to make compromises. But, don't compromise too much. Hire the best, or else someone else will.

What should you look for when hiring senior and staff engineers? - Scope of work. Did they work on a feature or lead the project or lead the team? - Good trade-offs. Do they come up with multiple solutions and pick the best one? - Ownership mentality. Did they monitor for bugs, setup logging, create a test plan, iterate on the feature? - Growth mindset. Do they try to learn from their mistakes and continuously improve? - Technical Strategy. Do they build systems, frameworks, and processes that up level the team? Or do they hack things together. - Conflict resolution. Can they disagree productively and drive the right decision even if it's not their idea? - Stakeholders. Can they work productively with non-technical coworkers to solve hard problems? - Delegation. Can they scale themselves and empower a team to solve a big problem, or do they try to do everything themselves?
