What you'll do
- Research and discovery. Study competitors, interview publishers and partners to uncover their needs, and dig into subscriber and payment data to find what's worth building.

- Deliver and coordinate. Drive features to production and keep the cross-product dependencies moving.
- Post-delivery support. Support marketing materials preparation, train the sales team, and prepare integration-team materials and public documentation.
