• Facilitate technical design reviews, architecture discussions, integration planning and cross-team dependency management
• Use AI-assisted development tools including Codex to accelerate prototyping, improve requirements clarity and support engineering delivery
• Identify business and technical opportunities for improvement using data analytics, platform performance, customer/colleague feedback and pain points
• Serve as the technical product champion for federation capabilities, APIs, integrations, orchestration frameworks and platform governance
• Track federation success metrics including adoption, onboarding time, delivery velocity, platform reuse, reliability, operational quality, and developer experience.
