No, product shouldn't be the head of an engineering team.

So you're argueing "prototyping greenfield projects and exploring innovative ideas" is something that should come solely out of engineering with no Product input?

That's not what I'm saying. There needs to be a collaboration with product ofc, product shouldn't be the boss though.
