The Product × Engineering Convergence | Else Van Der Berg & Peppe Silletti
Something weird is happening in product teams right now.
Engineers are getting involved in product decisions that would have traditionally belonged to PMs. Product managers are shipping code. Designers are ditching Figma for vibe-coded prototypes that ship faster than polished mockups ever could.
Everyone stepping on each other's toes.
Is this just a fad? Or the end of role specialisation as we know it?
We won't give you the answer in this description, or why on Earth would you tune in to our live?
So join us for the last live of 2025 with product lead Dr. Else Van Der Berg and product engineer Peppe Silletti to spend an hour of freestyle around the topic of Role Convergence.
We'll dig into:
- What's actually driving this shift
- Whether "product engineer" is a job title or a mindset
- How teams are navigating blurred boundaries (and the friction that comes with it)
- What this means for your career if you're on either side of the convergence
