Paid acquisition should scale only when the product is ready for it. The Growth Readiness Framework checks five conditions: a clear Beachhead ICP, repeatable activation, stable retention, viable economics, and acquisition independence. If one is weak, more traffic usually amplifies the problem instead of fixing it.

The classic product designer role was built around one assumption: building is hard, so designers hand work across a gap. That gap closed. AI tools made crossing from design into working code a matter of days, not years of training. What you should hire in 2026 is a design engineer — full product judgment plus the ability to ship the artifact themselves. No handoff, no translation tax, no unbuildable mockups. Filter for people who've actually shipped something, and pay them like the engineers they are.
