Ensure that insights from merchants, partners, and consumers inform future product strategy and roadmap prioritization.
  • Partner Cross-Functionally to Drive Impact Collaborate with Product and Data teams to synthesize insights from customer data, market trends, and usage analytics to inform strategic decisions.
