• Own, maintain, and prioritize the Marketplace product backlog based on business objectives, customer needs, technical dependencies, and platform priorities.
• Work with business stakeholders to understand Marketplace opportunities, problems, requirements, and desired outcomes.
• Translate business and user needs into well-defined features, user stories, acceptance criteria, workflows, and supporting documentation.
• Lead backlog refinement and work closely with engineering and QA throughout sprint planning, development, testing, and release.
• Provide timely product decisions and requirements clarification to keep development teams moving efficiently.
• Develop a strong understanding of Marketplace functionality, business rules, system interactions, integrations, and dependencies.
• Define and improve experiences for eye care practices, patients, vendors, and internal business users.
• Define requirements supporting vendor catalog ingestion, product data management, product availability, and practice-level product selection.
• Define and maintain requirements for wholesale cost, practice-controlled retail pricing, margins, discounts, promotions, and other pricing-related business rules.
• Own requirements across the commerce lifecycle, including product discovery, patient accounts, carts, checkout, payments, orders, fulfillment, returns, and customer communications.
• Define requirements for integrations with vendors and external systems, including APIs, data exchanges, synchronization processes, error handling, and expected system behaviors.
• Partner with UX/UI resources to create intuitive experiences for practices, patients, vendors, and internal users.
• Evaluate requested functionality against customer value, business priorities, technical complexity, dependencies, and existing platform capabilities.
• Identify edge cases and understand how changes in one part of the Marketplace may affect other users, workflows, integrations, or business rules.
• Coordinate requirements and dependencies across Marketplace functionality, engineering teams, external vendors, and business stakeholders.
• Participate in testing and validation to ensure delivered functionality meets requirements and expected business outcomes.
• Use stakeholder feedback, customer behavior, product data, and operational needs to identify opportunities for continued platform improvement.
• Clearly communicate priorities, decisions, requirements, risks, and dependencies to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

• Experience working directly with software engineering, QA, and UX/UI teams.
• Strong understanding of Agile software development practices, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, development, testing, and release.
• Experience with e‑commerce, marketplace, SaaS, or other transaction‑oriented digital platforms.
• Technical aptitude and the ability to understand APIs, integrations, data flows, system dependencies, and functional‑level software architecture.
• Experience working with third‑party integrations or external technology partners.
• Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and prioritization skills.
• Ability to identify edge cases, dependencies, and downstream impacts when defining functionality.
• Ability to make decisions, resolve ambiguity, and keep development teams moving without unnecessary escalation.
