Coordinate with Engineering on requirements, sequencing, and release plans; communicate impacts and timelines to stakeholders. Ensure our LMS, SIS, and portals enable effective teaching/learning and efficient operations; drive continuous improvements grounded in user feedback and data.

Build dashboards and reports on learning outcomes, platform usage, production throughput, and stakeholder satisfaction; use insights to inform priorities. Partner with Operations and Engineering on rollouts, enablement, and issue resolution; escalate risks early with clear mitigation plans. Manage budgets, timelines, and (where relevant) vendor relationships to deliver on goals. Conduct ongoing user research with students, teachers, and staff to validate needs and solutions, and feed insights into the roadmap. Integrate learner-journey insights with funnel and retention metrics; partner with CX/Growth and Academic/Ops to prioritize trade-offs and communicate expected impact.

Organized, proactive, and outcomes-oriented; able to manage multiple backlogs and deliver predictable releases. User-centered mindset (UX/UI in education).
