  • Partner with functional and technical leads to review product roadmaps and technical documentation, translating requirements into executable program plans
  • Manage development schedules to ensure on-time delivery, while incorporating customer-driven changes without impacting committed milestones
  • Identify, track, and mitigate program risks and dependencies across teams
