  • Sync with Design & Engineering during demos and retros so everyone stays aligned
  • Maintain transparent progress updates through demos, retros, and other reporting

  • Monitor post-launch stability and feed learnings into the backlog

What You Bring To The Role

  • A university degree (or similar) in a related discipline or current enrolment in a recognized program / co-op placement
  • 1-3 yrs in product, business analysis, or tech consulting
