- Communicate: Clearly communicate and collaborate across the organization to support program execution and enhance predictability. Be the voice of expertise when it comes to operational excellence.
- Collaborate: Partner with product, design, and engineering leaders to drive alignment across the organization and between teams. Coordinate with teams to identify, track, and prioritize impacts to timelines and quality.
- Process Improvements: Identify and implement process improvements and tooling to optimize team workflows and engineering effectiveness. Use data and metrics to extract insights, back up or challenge assumptions, make recommendations, prioritize features, and drive actions.
