- Propose & align the right outcomes for you and your teams to focus on in order to achieve your mission
- Leverage business/product metrics as well as a continuous Product Discovery approach with customers & internal stakeholders to identify, prioritize & sequence opportunities to achieve those outcomes
- Collaborate with the mission teams (Products Designers, Engineering Managers, Engineers ) to identify & implement the right solutions to capture those opportunities
- Coach your team to make them grow: feedback, coaching, mentoring
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of our Product team techniques & ways of working by sharing and leveraging your past experiences.
