• You map where we are underinvested in business metrics and you lead initiatives and business investment in upleveling our product metrics.  

#3 Process standardization and clarity 

• You own ensuring cross-functional product teams work effectively and efficiently by standardizing tooling, processes (e.g. roadmapping), reporting and more. You own the research, development and implementation of recommendations, and managing change that comes with these recommendations. 
• You work with other Product, Engineering, and Business leaders to implement product, process, tool improvements. 
• You ensure our product operations are aligned with our core goals, values, and processes. You make sure that tools/processes don’t dictate how we work, but rather tools align with how we want/should be functioning.

• You represent and drive strategic, functional, and business updates for Product.
