• Mentor engineers at all levels, building capability, confidence, and clarity in others through technical guidance, feedback, and knowledge sharing.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Analytics, and Technology teams to align on outcomes, reduce delivery risk, and deliver scalable solutions that empower the business.
