· Standardize key metrics and a shared language for product success (e.g., North Star metrics, OKRs, product health metrics, and ROI).
· Select, implement, and govern our product tool stack, including road mapping, backlog management (e.g., Jira), analytics, experimentation, and documentation (e.g., Confluence).
Elevate Product Culture & Expertise
· Establish and lead the Product Guild/Community of Practice to foster knowledge sharing and continuous improvement.
· Develop competency models, levelling guides, and training programs to accelerate the professional growth of our product managers.

Ensure Product Excellence & Compliance

· Define and track operating metrics across customer success, business ROI, and product outcomes to drive continuous improvement.
Qualifications/ What you bring (Must Haves):
· 8-12+ years in product management, product operations, or portfolio governance, with a proven track record of scaling practices across multiple teams.
