You'll work at least two days a week (40%) away from home, moving to three days a week (60%) in the future.

• Support the Product and Senior Product Managers with tracking progress and milestones.
• Gather and incorporate stakeholder and user feedback to inform backlog priorities.
• Monitor product metrics and operational trends to identify improvements.
