The role leads product strategy, roadmap prioritization, backlog health, stakeholder alignment, requirements definition, and delivery coordination across platform modernization, data platform migration, data governance, security and audit remediation, and data consumer enablement. Success in this role requires a product manager who can partner across business, engineering, data, security, and platform teams; turn ambiguous modernization and operational needs into clear product outcomes;
