You are someone who thrives on autonomy, loves transforming user insights into scalable solutions, and enjoys being the "expert" who brings clarity to complex technical processes.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Build and maintain quarterly and annual roadmaps for the App Store, evangelizing the product vision to stakeholders.

• Support the long-term strategy of the ALIS App Store by scoping new integrations and identifying market trends.

• Conduct qualitative and quantitative analysis to understand customer behavior and measure feature adoption.

• Lead daily scrums and manage the engineering backlog, ensuring the team is never blocked and work flows at a high velocity.

• Partner with engineering to build integrations using APIs, HL7s, VPN, SFTP, and data formats like CSV/XLS.

• Collaborate with UX designers to map workflows and use discovery techniques to de-risk projects for feasibility and business viability.

• Conduct User Acceptance Testing (UAT) and iterate fast based on feedback to ensure releases solve verified customer pain points.

• Act as the primary point of contact for integration requests, communicating with "charm, clarity, and professionalism".

• Create documentation and lead training for Support, Sales Engineering, and Client Services to ensure seamless feature rollouts.

• Keep all parties looped into progress through frequent demos and transparent status updates.

• The Pod is a "Well-Oiled Machine" - You have established a rhythmic, high-velocity sprint cycle where the engineering team is never blocked, requirements are crystal clear, and morale is high because the path forward is always defined.

• Data-Driven Roadmap - You aren’t just "guessing" what to build next. You can point to specific qualitative and quantitative insights that justify the product vision and quarterly milestones.

• Seamless Communication - All stakeholders never have to wonder about a project's status. They feel heard during the feedback loop and empowered by the documentation and training you provide.

• High-Impact Releases - Features aren't just "shippe
