Track leading indicators and post‑launch results, communicating lessons learned and next steps. Partner with Engineering to ensure timely, high‑quality product releases and apply the right delivery approach for each initiative. Collaborate with Marketing and Sales to coordinate product launches, communications, and go‑to‑market strategies. Cross‑Team Collaboration
– Build alignment and trust across Engineering, Learning, Marketing, Sales, and Leadership through clear, data‑informed communication. Ensure alignment on priorities, timelines, and success metrics. Serve as a strong advocate for the customer while balancing business needs. Mentor and coach an early‑career teammate on discovery, backlog management, and outcome‑driven planning. Business & Financial Accountability
– Favor small, testable experiments before large investments. Make disciplined trade‑offs between opportunity, effort, and business impact, presenting clear ROI or payback expectations. Proactively surface constraints and mitigation plans. Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent experience. 12+ years of professional experience, including 8+ years in product management roles.
