•   Quality Assurance: Oversee QA processes, including developing testing strategies, managing QA resources, and occasionally taking on QA/UAT testing tasks to ensure product quality.

•   Stakeholder Management: Act as a key point of contact between engineering, product, and other business units, ensuring clear communication, expectation management, and alignment across the organization.
