Performance & Quality Tracking: Develop and sustain dashboards or tracking systems to monitor meaningful metrics for processes. Proactively identify trends and issues. Process Improvement: Identify inefficiencies and collaborate on solutions that reduce manual effort. Partner with Product and Engineering teams to explore automation through third-party or AI tools. Program Support: Support and sometimes lead projects that streamline back-office operations and increase scalability. Comfortable proposing new workflows and documenting requirements. Cross-Functional Teamwork: Work closely with Legal, Product, and Finance to ensure process alignment and policy compliance.
