- Leading a workstream under a multi-tribe programme spanning several squads and functions
- Driving delivery on major platform migration project owning sequencing, dependencies, and release readiness across multiple squads
Across all of these projects, your job is the same: connect strategy to execution and improve how teams deliver.
