• Partner with Product and Design to identify and prioritize growth opportunities

• Ensure the team delivers measurable impact on key user and business metrics

Strengthen Data-Driven Development

• Promote best practices in experimentation and hypothesis-driven development

• Ensure proper instrumentation, analytics, and feedback loops
