• Collaborate with stakeholders (Epic Owners, Product Owners, Architects, and Engineering) to gather, refine, and prioritize requirements, feed the execution backlog and roadmap.
• Work closely with UX/UI designers to create intuitive and engaging user experiences.
• Oversee the capability development lifecycle from concept to launch and until the capability end of life.
• Monitor capability performance and measure success using metrics to drive continuous improvement and maximize capability usage.
• Ensure the capability's market readiness, including legal compliance, SLAs (Service Level Agreements), and cost model.
• Facilitate smooth and efficient deliveries by fostering strong, trustworthy relationships with train leaders, product owners, and architects, maintaining a well-groomed backlog, and ensuring appropriate levels of formalization.
