Job Summary

Own the product roadmap for a core area of the business, partnering with stakeholders to define vision, prioritize features, and ship measurable outcomes

Re-engineer manual and repetitive workflows by identifying automation opportunities and collaborating closely with a small team of engineers to build scalable solutions

Collaborative, curious, and self-starter mindset with comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
