You’ll work with stakeholders to plan requirements, identify risks, manage project schedules, and communicate clearly with cross-functional partners across the company.

  • Remove obstacles to drive momentum and progress, identify communication gaps, manage issue escalations, and provide support to teams balancing competing priorities.
  • Understand technical implementation at the system/architecture level and propose technical alternatives when necessary, ask questions that clarify priorities, and develop broad domain and technical knowledge.
