Provide data-driven recommendations to the Product Owner to pivot or double-down on specific features.
2. Roadmap & Lifecycle Operations
Own the "Product Operating System"—managing the backlog, sprint priorities, and the translation of business requirements into technical specs.
Balance short-term "technical debt" and maintenance with long-term "innovation" bets.

Execution Excellence: Proven track record of taking a product from concept to launch, managing complex dependencies across 4+ departments.
Technical Fluency: Ability to engage in deep-technical discussions with AI researchers while translating the "so what" for business stakeholders.
