• Establish best practices, playbooks, and knowledge-sharing platforms to scale successful initiatives.

A day in the life

• Be highly analytical, resourceful, customer-obsessed and team oriented; drive alignment and coherent product feature, business, and strategies.
• Drive strategic communications, own stakeholder engagement and identify customer requirements by considering data, customer feedback, and user research, and design data product value propositions for large tech and cross-functional audiences.
• Be able to manage multiple projects - including planning, prioritization, and task delegation. Work closely with data engineers, data scientists, BIEs through product launch.
