Directed backlog refinement and sprint planning across Agile Scrum teams for an AI-powered computer vision and video analytics platform, improving development throughput by 28% while maintaining delivery quality. Owned end-to-end product strategy and roadmap, applying value-vs-effort prioritization frameworks to balance model accuracy, latency, and scalability trade-offs across the ML feature backlog. Translated ambiguous business requirements into detailed user stories and acceptance criteria for ML-driven capabilities — behavior detection, classification, and anomaly detection — reducing requirement-related rework for engineering and data science teams. Partnered with data science teams to operationalize models for real-time video ingestion, inference, and behavior tagging across multi-camera environments spanning multiple enclosure zones. Defined enclosure-based configuration architecture (camera mapping, species mapping, and zone definitions), enabling context-aware model execution and reducing manual configuration effort by 30%. Served as primary bridge between founders/stakeholders and Engineering/AI teams, aligning product goals, KPIs, and release timelines in a fast-moving startup environment.
