Technical PM Skill

Apply a structured framework to technical PM questions targeting AI product roles.

When to Use

• User asks about RLHF, fine-tuning, evals, inference, model architecture
• User asks "Design a system that uses LLMs to X"
• User asks "How would you build a RAG system for X"
• User asks about technical trade-offs in AI/ML systems
• User asks about API design for AI products
• User says /technical-pm followed by a question
• Any question requiring ML/AI technical depth from a PM perspective

Context

• Tuned for: AI product roles at frontier AI companies
• What matters: Going deep with researchers and engineers. You don't need to implement, but you need to understand the technical landscape well enough to make informed product decisions.
• Common pitfall: Hand-waving on technical details. Be specific about architectures, trade-offs, and constraints.
