• Shape product strategy. You’ll evaluate opportunities based on customer value, business viability, and long-term platform strategy while helping define the roadmap for your team.
• Design AI-powered workflows. You’ll use AI tools and product thinking to automate manual work, reduce operational friction, and help customers operate by exception instead of constant intervention.
