• Prioritize projects and features based on impact and alignment with the team's long-term goals and strategy.
• Collaborate with the scrum team to design, build, launch, and assess MVPs.
• Establish a vision and roadmap for AI capabilities across account, deal, and buyer intelligence workstreams, defining how our GTM technology stack (Salesforce, Gong, ZoomInfo, Salesloft, etc.) seamlessly integrates to power these processes.
