Work with cross-functional teams to drive product requirements, manage resources and dependencies, gain approvals (compliance, legal, etc.), and lead the team through key milestones. Understand Empower’s business goals, the competitive landscape, and design products that align with our mission and vision. Define, analyze, and track key performance metrics. Drive decision making through customer insights, agile methods to validate hypotheses, quantitative analysis, and A/B testing. Execute at a fast pace with a focus on customer outcomes, the user experience, and learning with limited oversight. Constantly challenge the status quo and identify opportunities to move faster and more efficiently. What you will bring 3+ years of experience leading major digital direct-to-consumer products and working collaboratively with engineering, design, and research teams. Exceptional prioritization and stakeholder management skills, particularly with compliance/legal partners in a highly regulated industry.
