• Use data & KPIs: define and track metrics (velocity, lead time, defect rates, code quality, etc.), analyze trends, and present insights to leadership to improve delivery.
• Optimize tools & processes: leverage Jira, Git workflows, CI/CD, and analytics tools (CodeScene, HayStack, CodeRabbit) to improve efficiency and visibility.
• Facilitate technical decisions: bridge business and technical needs, clarify requirements, coordinate with architects and leads, and ensure feasibility and alignment.
