• Translate ambiguous problem spaces into clear problem statements, success metrics, and product direction.
• Develop business cases, define expected impact, and assess risks and trade-offs to support decision-making.
• Own initiatives end-to-end, from hands-on discovery to day-to-day execution with engineering, through launch and post-launch iteration.
• Serve as the primary product owner for assigned initiatives, driving detailed problem-solving and requirements definition.
• Define product requirements, scope, and success metrics in collaboration with engineering, design, analytics, and operations teams.
• Build, prioritize, and manage the product backlog to ensure focus on high-impact work.
