You will be responsible for leading the Identity PM team. You will be familiar with industry trends and best practices; you will collaborate with your PM team, data science, engineering and data partnerships to define our identity strategy and the roadmap to get there. You will be responsible for ensuring that the PM team is set up to successfully drive execution against that roadmap;

you will provide leadership of deeply technical projects in a complex, fast-paced environment. You will facilitate the career growth of your team.
