What it Means to be a Product Manager in IoT | Daniel Elizalde, IoT Product Consultant | #AskIoT E004
IoT Product Consultant Daniel Elizalde joins hosts Ryan Chacone and Mark BLS to discuss the complexities of product management in the Internet of Things. Elizalde explains his 'IoT Decision Framework' and the concept of the 'T-shaped' product manager, emphasizing the need for broad horizontal knowledge across the tech stack and deep vertical expertise in specific areas. He highlights the critical importance of defining clear business problems before building, warning against 'shiny object syndrome' and premature hardware development. The conversation also covers team structures, the shift toward 'as-a-service' business models, and the challenges of pricing in large-scale deployments.
