Product Manager
The Product Manager is a skilled and independent operational leader of a cross-functional squad, responsible for translating agreed-upon Key Results into a concrete execution plan. They act as the primary bridge between strategic vision and the development team, ensuring every sprint item connects back to a measurable outcome.
Although working with a certain level of guidance from senior leadership, they take ownership of the outcomes for their designated product/s. Rather than simply managing a backlog, the Product Manager empowers the team to discover the best solutions through experimentation and data analysis, while ensuring the squad remains focused on the "why" behind every task.

- Facilitate the adoption of KRs within the cross-functional team to ensure total alignment on the specific metrics used to measure success.
- Transform the backlog from a list of features into a prioritized roadmap of hypotheses and experiments specifically designed to impact Key Results.
- Facilitate agile rituals (sprint planning, reviews, demos) to maintain a consistent delivery cadence and high team morale.
- Coordinate with the CRO function to design, implement, and analyze experiments (e.g., A/B tests) to validate ideas before committing to full-scale development.
