This PM will drive cross‑functional delivery to demonstrate clear near-term impact against Whole Trip and family‑tagged metrics.

Complexity / Tenure: Multi-team, cross-surface (web + app) UX delivery, experimentation, and instrumentation across a Whole Trip portfolio is beyond a mid-level PM; it’s consistent with strong Senior level expectations for product.

Comfortable running structured delivery rituals, keeping multiple teams aligned and unblocked. Product thinking tied to BEX Whole Trip outcomes Frames work against trip‑level outcomes (e.g., trip starts, attach, multi‑item rate) rather than local CVR only.
