The definition for a product is “something that is made or grown to be sold or used.” Design’s definition is “to plan and make decisions about (something that is being built or created).”
Therefore product design is: To plan and make decisions about something that is made or grown to be sold or used.
But a definition of how a product looks and acts is only that first step. Now engineers of various types, usually mechanical engineers for physical products, need to figure out all the details. Some people call this part of product development engineering design and design for manufacturing.
Which brings up another important aspect of product design — figuring out how to manufacture the product. It is up to the full product design process to make sure all manufacturing processes are considered, components can be sourced, the parts can be made, and the whole thing can be put together. The product design engineers will work with manufacturing engineers during the design process and often well into production.
