Navigating AI's Impact on Engineering

Matt Watson, who scaled VIN Solutions to a $150 million exit, shares his journey from coding to building products that make a real impact in the business world.

We talk about:

• Why most developers fail at launching products
• What it means to be a product-minded engineer
• How AI is exposing weak developers
• The importance of sales, customer empathy, and learning in public

“Your code isn’t the product. Solving real problems is.”

“If I have to write requirements down to the detail… I might as well just give it to AI.”
