Facebook (Meta) I have 10+yoe on tech consulting ( sap implementations as functional architect) + Computer science engineering background.
In my role, I sit with business to understand the needs of customers/business and translate it into functional specs which will be then programmed by developers.

Does this tech consulting experience translate to Product manager role at tech firms. If so, which of the tech companies are open to hire consultants as product managers?Amazon Google Facebook Apple

Hopefully you could check with tech implementation projects at ey tech consulting.

Customers/users are different for different erp implementations depending upon if it's an internal product or b2c product.

It definitely sounds like you could be a PM. Have you networked with them at all?

Thanks. Appreciate your inputs.

You want to go straight to FAANG as a PM? Have you read Cracking the PM Interview? Most of the PMs working for FAANG or similar that I know started after finishing a top MBA program.

like

Yes. I read cracking the pm interview as a first step to understand what a pm career is about and then started matching my skillset.
Since I don't have anyone in my first level network as PMs, I still have questions regarding the career path and how to make the transition and hence posted it here.

Regarding faang pm careers, those are the places where I can transition without taking any hit on my salary. I checked some of f500 pm salary scale and they seem to be lesser than my current pay.

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA.

Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.
