  • Strong experience leading complex, cross-functional programs across Product, Engineering, QA, Support, Finance, and Operations
  • Deep understanding of the software development lifecycle and modern delivery practices including Agile methodologies, CI/CD, and release planning
  • Proven experience rolling out new capabilities with a focus on operational readiness and adoption
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence and align stakeholders without direct authority
