In this role, you lead structured discovery efforts, translating complex and often ambiguous business needs into clear, actionable inputs that inform product direction. You operate at the intersection of business, marketing, and product focusing on problem framing, opportunity identification, and prioritization rather than detailed requirements or delivery execution.

You will collaborate across Product, Technology, and client-facing teams to bridge business needs and product execution for our client.
Due to client requirements, applicants must be willing and able to work on a w2 basis. For our w2 consultants, we offer a great benefits package that includes Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits, 401k with company matching, and life insurance.
