• Talk to customers every week. Turn what you learn into clear problem statements, specs and prioritization calls.
• Define and instrument the metrics for your areas, and use data to decide what's working.
• Work closely with engineers from design through launch.
• Partner with the GTM team on launches and messaging for your areas and our support team to define the product roadmap.
