  • Prioritize issues based on user impact and severity.
  • Respond to fan support emails by investigating reported mobile app issues, reproducing problems, identifying root causes, and providing timely, professional resolutions to deliver an exceptional fan experience.
  • Participate in release readiness reviews and quality signoff.
