WHAT YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR - Partner with Engineering, Product, Design (EPD) and other stakeholder to structure and drive complex, cross-team initiatives; clarifying scope and value, securing commitment across a distributed organization, setting timelines, and leading activities from design through launch. - Design systems by building the tracking, reporting, and escalation mechanisms that surface risk and progress. - Build process to ensure launch readiness is predictable, consistent and coordinated across all cross-functional participants. - Ask the questions that clarify priority and scope, giving async teams the context to keep building and unblocking. - Build trusted relationships with stakeholders and maintain transparency into program goals, commitments, risk and delivery quality, primarily through clear written communication. - Identify bottlenecks before they become blockers, develop options to resolve them, and clearly communicate the trade-offs that each option carries. - Map dependencies and relationships across projects and teams, coordinating delivery across groups that don’t share reporting lines. - Keep Engineering, Product, and Design accountable for their own delivery outcomes while you track, surface risk, and unblock. - Develop technical and domain fluency to be an active and credible member of the delivery team and triad.
