- Professional network development through close collaboration with senior leadership and global operations experts.
- What does success look like in the first 30, 60, 90 days?
- 30 Days: Build relationships across engineering, operations, and client teams, learn the DTC order flow end to end on the warehouse floor, and master the existing systems, data, and DTC product roadmap.
60 Days: Take full ownership of two-week sprint planning, use data to identify the top DTC cost and accuracy drivers, and deliver early feature releases with UX.
90 Days: Present an updated DTC product strategy and roadmap to leadership, independently lead primary DTC initiatives, and show measurable movement on at least one core operational metric.
