Oversee coordination of dependent tasks, risk management, and uphold the project management standards of the team, while fostering individual growth.

Team Performance: Ensure the team consistently meets its commitments, aligning with broader organizational objectives. Evaluate performance metrics and continually enhance your team's efficiency and effectiveness.

Collaborative Leadership: Actively collaborate with other Squad Leads, Engineering Managers, and the Architecture Board, ensuring alignment and cohesive progress.
