Cross-Functional Leadership
- Work closely with Product, QA, Design, Data Engineering, BI, and DevOps stakeholders to ensure successful delivery of company objectives.
- Facilitate effective communication and collaboration across teams.
- Act as the primary engineering representative in planning, prioritization, and execution discussions.
- Help align technical decisions with broader business goals and strategic initiatives.
