  • Identify and articulate where the products share buyers, adjacent use cases, or opportunities for deeper integration.
  • Ensure each product's roadmap reflects a clear point of view on market direction.
• Engage With Customers and Markets:
  • Maintain a sharp, current understanding of the developer tools market.
  • Conduct ongoing customer discovery and competitive analysis.
  • Be the internal authority on the buyers and end users of these products.
• Communicate Product Strategy to Stakeholders:
  • Clearly communicate product strategy, roadmap priorities, and progress to senior stakeholders.
  • Make the case for roadmap investments with data and strategic clarity.
  • Keep engineering, sales, marketing, and customer success aligned and informed.
• Partner With GTM and Engineering:
  • Work with go-to-market teams on positioning, messaging, and product launch readiness.
  • Partner with engineering leadership on sequencing, capacity, and delivery.
  • Support key sales cycles, analyst briefings, or partnership conversations.
