• Work directly with our engineering teams to develop products that meet the requirements, understand the constraints, and recognize the risks.

• Collaborate closely with internal and external customers to bring products and features to market.
• Continuously interview customers to gather market intelligence related to your product area.
• Build short-term tactical plans and strategic long-term roadmaps.

Skills & Qualifications:
