• Assist with go-to-market preparation and internal enablement for teams such as Sales, Support, and Training.
• Own the product experience and continuously improve SaaS best practices across the platform.
• Work with Product Leadership on product strategy and roadmap planning for packaging compliance, with a focus on PPWR and related regulations.

• Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to drive decisions through to completion.
• A strong focus on quality and a refusal to ship incomplete features.
• Ability to ramp up quickly on tools, products, and processes.
• Confidence working with engineers and providing clear requirements, fast decisions, and minimal disruption.
