I have worked at TikTok US core tech for 3 years. AMA.
I might become a product manager. But ultimately I want to be an EM and a VP of Engineering. Is this possible?
It's possible, but why do you want to be PM?
Because I'm good at it. I also have memory problems that prevent me from ever becoming an excellent coder.
I would say it is not a direct path. You should also earn your stripes as a coder if you want to be managing them one day. If you're better at PM, why not aim to become VP product?
