• Write and present the product requirements document
• Oversee and sign off on the functional spec
• Oversee the product as it is being built by development/engineering
• Communicate with stakeholders during the development of a product to keep them updated
• Coordinate testing of a product, including user acceptance testing, alpha and beta programs
• Collect, coordinate, and prioritize bug fixes
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Product Development/Engineering, UX/Product Design, Regulatory Analysis, Customer Support, Professional Services, and Product Marketing
