• Drive Execution Rigor & Planning: Lead the annual and quarterly planning cycles, ensuring alignment across Product, Engineering, and Design. Force early visibility and resolution of misalignments between cross-functional teams before they impact delivery.
• Lead Technical Program Management (TPM): Directly lead the TPM organization, overseeing the execution of complex, multi-team initiatives that are critical to the company’s success.
