• Support Product Management and ART-level leads with coordinating Feature creation, decomposition, refinement, and alignment to approved Epics and Capabilities.

• Ensure Features are appropriately mapped to Epics/Capabilities and Stories are appropriately mapped to Features, maintaining bidirectional traceability throughout delivery.
• Coordinate with appropriate stakeholders to ensure ITFRs and Program/IMS Milestones are mapped to the Features responsible for satisfying or supporting them.
• Conduct recurring traceability and data-quality reviews to identify and drive resolution of orphaned, missing, duplicate, or incorrectly linked work items.
• Develop and maintain dashboards, reports, and metrics that provide visibility into traceability completeness, gaps, and overall data quality.
• Support Portfolio and ART Backlog Refinement, PI Planning, Portfolio Syncs, and other planning/governance activities where backlog structure and traceability are established or validated.
• Collaborate with LPM, Product Management, RTEs, Product Owners, Business Analysts, Architects, and other stakeholders to resolve backlog and traceability gaps.
