- Ensure consistency in requirements quality, backlog hygiene, and release readiness across feature areas
- Promote a culture of customer empathy, measurable outcomes, and continuous improvement
- Partner with PMs to understand market problems, target segments, and outcome goals; convert PM-defined strategy into executable product plans (epics, features, releases)
- Contribute actionable input during planning (risks, dependencies, sequencing) while keeping alignment with PM-owned strategy and prioritization
- Translate business objectives into clear success metrics and acceptance criteria for delivery teams
- Own near- and mid-term roadmaps for assigned AIMXR components; maintain transparent views of scope, dependencies, and release timing
- Lead backlog refinement, story mapping, and estimation with engineering; ensure stories are testable, valuable, and trace to outcomes
- Make day-to-day tradeoffs on scope and sequencing to protect delivery dates and quality, escalating strategic reprioritization decisions to PMs as appropriate
- Partner with engineering, data science, and architecture to shepherd features from discovery through GA; clarify requirements, edge cases, and non-functional needs
- Coordinate with privacy/governance partners to incorporate compliance requirements into definitions of done
- Align with documentation, enablement, and GTM teams to ensure feature readiness (release notes, guides, training materials, and internal demos)
- Serve as a senior product point-of-contact for internal stakeholders and select client conversations to explain capability behavior, roadmap intent, and release plans
- Collect feedback from users, delivery, and support teams; synthesize into user stories and backlog updates
- Validate outcomes post-launch via telemetry and customer feedback, and feed learnings back into PM-owned strategy discussions
- Define and track feature-level KPIs (adoption, utilization, performance, quality)
- Run lightweight experiments and A/B validations where applicable; socialize results and next steps
- Improve team flow (lead time, throughput, predictability) and strengthen discovery/delivery practices across your PO team
