  • Partner with Design, Tech Design, and Development to ensure product execution meets athlete performance standards and league requirements
  • Translate consumer research, athlete feedback, and marketplace insights into tangible product decisions, not abstract direction
  • Lead the end-to-end product lifecycle from concept through commercialization, ensuring timelines, quality, and profitability targets are hit
  • Build and deliver compelling product narratives and presentations for key gates (seasonal reviews, leadership forums, league approvals)
  • Ensure product systems thinking across uniforms (not isolated SKUs but cohesive head-to-toe expressions)
  • Manage product costs, margin targets, and pricing alignment in partnership with merchandising and sourcing
  • Drive alignment across league, athlete, and internal stakeholders to deliver cohesive and premium product experiences
