• Strong strategic and portfolio management capabilities, with the ability to prioritize investments, navigate trade-offs, and make high-impact decisions across multiple planning horizons.
• Experience leading through product leaders and managers, including hiring, developing, coaching, and building high-performing teams and leadership capabilities.
