• Experience working within a product organization, with a strong understanding of product strategy, portfolio management and the product development lifecycle sufficient to partner effectively with product and technology leaders.
• Demonstrated success leading complex, cross-functional initiatives within a highly matrixed and/or global organization, influencing senior stakeholders across functions, markets and geographies.
