- Bring ideas and recommendations to stakeholders with confidence, grounded in user needs and delivery realities
- Manage and prioritize the product backlog, and lead regular backlog refinement with the team

- Partner with UX research and design on the team to understand users and prioritize the needs that deliver the most value
- Establish a healthy, trust-based rapport with teammates and stakeholders
- Collaboratively identify and work to understand stakeholder constraints. Develop solutions that address diverse and sometimes conflicting stakeholder needs
