- Define and monitor OKRs, KPIs and adoption metrics covering business outcomes, platform usage, service performance, delivery efficiency, reliability and cost.
- Coordinate delivery across design, build and run contributors to ensure platform increments are delivered in a governed, traceable and business-aligned manner.
- Facilitate sprint planning, backlog refinement, roadmap reviews, release planning and stakeholder demos where relevant.
- Ensure smooth transition from build to run, including knowledge transfer, operating model readiness, support model definition and service documentation.
- Co-lead the Data Integration capability with System Integration teams, clarifying shared ownership, responsibilities and decision-making boundaries.
- Ensure the Data Integration roadmap, backlog and priorities are aligned with Data & AI platform strategy, business demand and enterprise integration architecture.
- Coordinate integration patterns, service definitions, delivery dependencies and run responsibilities across Data & AI, System Integration, architecture, security and operations.
- Promote standardization, reusability, observability and governance of data integration services across platforms and domains.
- Ensure platform initiatives comply with Data & AI governance, security, architecture, GxP, data protection and internal control requirements.
- Work closely with architecture, security, compliance, data governance and quality teams to embed compliance-by-design into platform services.
- Maintain traceability of key decisions, priorities, risks, dependencies and delivery commitments.
- Act as the main product interface for Data & AI platforms, ensuring clear communication with internal clients, delivery teams and leadership.
- Align expectations on scope, timelines, service levels, dependencies and responsibilities.
