- Proven ability to connect insights to financial outcomes (activation, conversion, retention) and influence Product and Growth roadmaps.
- Prior collaboration with FinOps or RevOps teams linking product metrics to business performance.
- Strong communicator who can translate complex analyses into concise, actionable narratives for technical and non-technical audiences.
