• Partner with Scrum Masters and product teams to maintain appropriate traceability across initiative deliverables, features, epics, and team backlogs.
• Create and maintain dashboards, dependency views, and visual management tools using Azure DevOps, Miro, and Microsoft collaboration tools.

• Hold vendors and implementation partners accountable for deliverables, quality, dependencies, and outcomes.
• Ensure initiatives follow established Technology Delivery Framework expectations and applicable governance, security, architecture, data, privacy, and compliance requirements.
