• Shape and steer the vision and roadmap, balancing the needs of internal and external stakeholders while navigating a variety of technical blockers

• Influence the roadmaps of data engineering, experimentation platform, and analytics platform teams to accelerate progress on your own team

• Evangelize for technology-driven productivity improvements, while maintaining a balance between creativity and out-of-the-box thinking with pragmatism and a keen eye for impact
