• Cross-Functional Leadership & Client Relationships: Act as the primary point of coordination between internal teams (engineering, design, data science, and marketing) and external clients. Maintain strong relationships with each service provider, understanding their unique needs and ensuring product roadmaps reflect these requirements. Lead client onboarding processes, ensuring smooth integrations and successful adoption of the platform. 

• Continuous Improvement & Agile Development: Lead agile development processes, with a focus on continuous iteration and improvement.
