- Using customer feedback, analytics and research to inform decisions and validate outcomes.
- Collaborating with Product Managers, Architects, Delivery Leads and third-party technology partners throughout the product lifecycle.
- Leading backlog refinement, sprint planning and other Agile ceremonies.
- Supporting user testing and continuous improvement activities to optimise product performance and user experience.
- Making data-driven decisions to guide priorities, measure success and identify opportunities.
