• Use data, research, and quantitative feedback to make informed prioritisation decisions
• Facilitate sprint planning, backlog refinement, sprint reviews, and retrospectives
• Clarify user stories, break down complex features, and ensure development teams have what they need to deliver with confidence.
• Translate business goals into user outcomes, managing expectations and ensuring alignment.
• Monitor product performance, user feedback, and market trends to iterate on experience improvements
