  • Execution & Delivery Leadership

  • Lead Agile ceremonies, including planning, standups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.
  • Coordinate execution across engineering, UX, analytics, and business teams to ensure timely progress.
  • Identify and mitigate delivery risks, remove blockers, and maintain momentum toward defined outcomes.
  • MVP Development & Iterative Validation

  • Drive rapid experimentation cycles, including prototype testing, user validation, and data-driven iteration.
  • Partner with design to refine user flows, usability considerations, and experience standards.
  • Consolidate findings and prepare validated concepts for transition into full-scale product development pathways.
  • Cross‑Functional Collaboration

  • Facilitate working sessions, requirement deep‑dives, and solution walkthroughs with diverse stakeholder groups.
  • Ensure alignment across teams by communicating priorities, progress, changes, and key decisions with clarity and professionalism.
  • Maintain strong relationships with technical and non-technical partners to support seamless delivery.
  • Required Qualifications

  • Demonstrated experience driving MVPs, POCs, or early‑stage digital product initiatives in a fast‑paced environment.
  • Strong expertise in Agile product delivery, including backlog management, story writing, prioritization, and iterative planning.
  • Proven ability to collaborate effectively within small, cross-functional pods across engineering, UX, and business functions.
  • Skilled at structuring complex or ambiguous problem spaces, facilitating decision-making, and driving measurable outcomes.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at multiple levels.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience delivering customer-facing digital products, operational workflow tools, or enterprise solutions.
  • Familiarity with design thinking, service design, or innovation methodologies.
  • Background working in environments undergoing product-model or agile transformation.
