- Ensure user stories are delivery-ready, accept or reject completed work against criteria, co-lead UAT with stakeholders, and lead product go/no-go readiness.
- Establish measurable metrics ahead of release and analyze post-launch data to surface insights and improvement opportunities for data-driven decision-making.
- Work closely with Technical Architecture, GPM, and SMEs across the lifecycle, document feature behavior and business rules, and capture post-release feedback to sustain product value.
