• Conduct mid-development check-ins to catch risks early and keep workstreams on track.
• Develop technical how-to guides and support documentation by gathering insights directly from developers.
• Standardize repeatable team processes to improve efficiency and consistency.
• Collaborate with developers to validate understanding of technical content before reviewing final documentation with the Program Manager.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, story writing, and daily stand-ups.
• Serve as a trusted sounding board to the Program Manager on use cases, technical direction, and prioritization decisions.
