• Apply and quality‑check outputs from pricing agents across assigned categories—validating data inputs, flagging anomalies or inconsistencies, and ensuring outputs are accurate before they move forward in the analytical workflow.
• Support in‑season monitoring of pricing actions for assigned work streams—tracking performance against plan, flagging variances, and surfacing data that helps the team identify risks or optimization opportunities quickly.
• Use AI reporting tools and pricing platforms as a daily analytical tool—interrogating outputs with a critical eye, maintaining data integrity, and escalating to the Manager when outputs require additional human review before informing a decision.
