A day in the life
At the start of the day you will join a scrum session with the engineering team, to understand the team's project delivery status and to help unblock them if necessary. During the day you may update project documents and status reports, dive deep into a project's tracking and finer details, or disambiguate a project risk or issue. In the afternoon you may lead a leadership review or connect with a partner team in Seattle or Toronto.
