• Work with Engineering and partner technical teams to deliver scalable integrations (e.g., APIs, feeds, webhooks, and data exchange), including authentication, data quality, and observability
• Own the end-to-end partner experience across critical journeys such as catalog ingestion, pricing and promotions, inventory/availability, order routing, cancellations/returns, customer service handoffs, and settlement considerations in partnership with Finance

• Drive continuous improvement via experimentation, playbooks, and automation that reduce manual effort and improve partner scale
• Use AI-assisted delivery (including coding agents) as a repeatable practice to accelerate PM and engineering throughput: generate first drafts (PRDs, user stories, acceptance criteria, release notes), validate outputs with data and SMEs, and define guardrails for privacy/security, partner data handling, and human-in-the-loop approvals for high-risk or customer-impacting changes

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting product strategy, priorities, and trade-offs to senior leadership and external partner stakeholders
