I had the same feeling when I started new job 2 years ago. I was overwhelmed by not knowing the product and the technologie used.
I guess it s normal to have those thoughts but don't let be an obstacles for your know job.
Tips that I have tried and worked for me are :
Ask a lot of questions at the beginning and have a notebook (or use an online tool google doc; oneNote or other) to write down all things that has been said to u, we tend to forget quickly at beginning because we have a lot of new things that we learn.
Give propositions as much as u can, it s good to have a new eye on the product/service
Take some responsabilities by your self, don't wait until they ask u to do, so when ever you have a free time at work, take a subject and work on it.
Good Luck and don't forget that they have chosen u because you are competent otherwise they would chose an other person.
One of the most salient features of our Tech Hiring culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. Each of us contributes his share. But we tend to take the situation for granted.
