Define and publish typed event schemas and governance workflows for frontend teams. Design tracking plans for new features, validate end-to-end data flow before launch, and partner with product managers to design and analyze A/B experiments.

Contribute to the semantic layer providing a single source of truth for metric definitions. Supply reliable, governed data to AI features improving member and vet workflows.
