• Write clear technical briefs and architecture-aligned documentation that defines what needs to ship and why.
• Work with engineering teams to unblock delivery and remove bottlenecks.
• Support feature launches by ensuring systems are stable, documented, and technically market-ready.
• Map technical improvements to platform capabilities that unlock business use cases like DSP targeting or Marketplace monetization.
• Partner with UX and design teams to ensure ideas are feasible without prescribing creative direction.
