Responsibilities

  • Partner with engineering to define system boundaries, APIs, and realistic delivery plans
  • Lead cross-functional alignment across Product, Design, Engineering, QA, and regional teams
  • Identify risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks early; drive mitigation and escalation
  • Design and build execution dashboards, reports, and tracking systems using real data (e.g., Jira APIs, logs, metrics)
