• Backlog Quality: Maintain high-quality backlogs across all teams, ensuring each item is well-defined, appropriately sized, and linked to measurable outcomes.
• Customer Validation: Conduct structured discovery sessions with customers and operators to validate assumptions before engineering resources are committed.

• Cross-Team Alignment: Harmonize roadmap priorities across multiple delivery teams, adeptly resolving trade-offs and sequencing decisions.
• Stakeholder Collaboration: Work closely with engineering, design, and the principal solution architect to ensure scope is realistic and technically sound.
• Communication & Feedback: Represent the product roadmap to customers, partners, and leadership, and effectively translate feedback into actionable priorities.

• Outcome Focus: Demonstrate a history of translating end-user or operator needs into shipped products that deliver measurable outcomes.
• Accountability: Be comfortable holding delivery teams accountable for achieving outcomes, not merely delivering features.
• Complex Platforms: Have experience working with complex, multi-team platforms, ideally within defense, government, or other regulated sectors.
• Communication Skills: Exhibit strong facilitation and communication skills, effectively engaging with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Data-Informed Approach: Employ a structured, data-informed methodology for prioritization and roadmap decisions.
