  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Act as a bridge between the PDL, engineering, QA, UX/design, and the Scrum Master to ensure alignment on scope and delivery; participate in standups, sprint demos, and retrospectives; assist in preparing the team for UAT sessions, status reviews, and client-facing presentations.

  • Quality & Process: Ensure requirements traceability from epic through to acceptance and delivery; proactively identify gaps, ambiguities, or risks in requirements and surface them to the PDL; contribute to continuous process improvement on the team.
