Engaging with users for feedback and user research will be essential to enhancing user experience as well as leveraging data and user insights to turn into product strategy and requirements.

You will lead the definition, execution, and rollout and monitoring of features in a complex area, working with product managers, designers, and engineers, analytics teams as well as our adoption team. You will anticipate opportunities and challenges, guiding the team and leadership in addressing them proactively.

Your role includes developing business requirements, leading agile development, and managing backlog grooming and sprint planning with your team. You will establish time schedules with engineering and design teams and define and develop necessary features. Prototyping, testing, and visualizing product features with designers will be part of your daily tasks. Ensuring that each feature meets its acceptance criteria will be a key responsibility, driving the success of our generative AI initiatives.

You’ll continuously improve your teams operations, ensure risks are addressed and will collaborate with key leaders and stakeholders aligning as well as identifying and driving synergies across your workstreams.

You’ll foster a culture of collaboration, excellence, and ownership within the team, coach product owners within the team and contribute overall to the growth of the product capability and implement best practices across your team.
