• Create an AI product agenda that improves customer outcomes and operational leverage while applying appropriate governance, data discipline, and risk controls
• Raise the standard for product discovery, design, UX research, experimentation, prototyping, roadmap governance, and release management
• Establish a transparent product scorecard spanning activation, engagement, adoption, retention, customer satisfaction, delivery velocity, quality, revenue contribution, and profitability
• Work across sales, operations, technology, finance, marketing, risk, compliance, and service to ensure product strategy becomes coordinated execution and compelling customer value
