Business & Product partnerships

• Partner with product, engineering, operations and other business leaders to ensure technology decisions are aligned with business goals and client needs.
• Be a thought partner to Operations and Product.
• Bridge the gap and connect the dots between the various departments of the organization to identify partnerships and create alignment towards common objectives.
