For essentially my entire career in tech, the most valuable person was an engineer who understood some business/GTM. The entire economic structure of the industry was built on this. Engineers commanded the highest salaries. The cap table was designed around equity comp because you couldn't afford them in cash. The seed round existed to buy engineering time/output. And VCs were, at their core, an arbitrage on engineering scarcity. That scarcity is gone. Now the most valuable person is the business/GTM person that understands some engineering.
