Platform engineering isn’t just about tools—it’s about unlocking developer potential. Jabed Amin’s latest blog dives into what makes platform engineering the backbone of modern software development. From centralizing resources to abstracting complexity, platform engineers ensure that teams can build, ship, and scale efficiently—without getting lost in infrastructure headaches. The key? A product mindset. Treating the internal developer platform (IDP) as a product means prioritizing developer experience, gathering feedback, and continuously iterating—just like any great software.
