Value Stream & Technical Program Management

• Optimize the flow of value across the ART, proactively identifying and managing risks, dependencies, and impediments to keep delivery on track.
• Apply understanding of both traditional SDLC and iterative AI/ML development lifecycle to manage technical complexities and guide data science, engineering, and MLOps teams.
• Implement and maintain metrics, dashboards, and information radiators to measure ART health, predictability, and throughput.
• Facilitate collaboration across distributed, matrixed teams, acting as translator between technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Strategic Alignment & Continuous Improvement
