• Be the voice of the customer: partner with engineering teams across Lyft, surface their pain points, and feed that back into priorities and roadmaps
• Define success metrics and adoption goals, gather and document customer requirements, and make sure what ships actually solves the problem
• Build feedback loops with customer teams and turn what you hear into concrete improvements
• Partner with engineering and infrastructure leads to build plans, call out risks early, and keep stakeholders aligned
• Own program health: track milestones, surface blockers before they slip, and keep decision-makers in the loop

• Share in the team's release oncall rotation
