• Partner day-to-day withengineering and design to keep work unblocked and moving, and make scoping calls as questions come up. Stay close to customers.
• Gather and synthesise feedback through support conversations, user testing, anddirect customer contact so the team stays grounded in real pain points, especially the needs of care providersand support workers.
• Measure and learn.
• Track how features perform (adoption, engagement, retention) and use what you learnto inform what to build, improve, or retire.
• Coordinate launches.
• Support smooth releases by writing release notes, preparing internal teams, andmaking sure customer-facing and support teams are ready.
