• Monitor voice of customer feedback post launch to gather key insights to help shape the product experience and future enhancements.

• Work closely with product stakeholders to define and drive product vision and distill a very strategic product commercialization.

• Work closely with product stakeholders to define MVPs, manage product backlog priorities, and strategically de-scope to achieve rapid feedback cycles and meet launch timelines.
