- Partner with Product Owners to define products, test assumptions, and create specifications, user stories, and OKR-linked acceptance criteria.
- Own the product lifecycle from concept through launch and iteration; collect feedback, measure impact, and plan next steps.
- Maintain the shared project context hub for strategy, decisions, requirements, risks, and technical context, using AI tooling to keep it current.
- Lead delivery teams by managing issues and risks, facilitating meetings, and communicating clear project status.
- Validate technical approaches, strategy, and deliverables with engineering leaders, and document the team's toolchain.
