Summary:

The responsibilities of a Product Lead IT (PLIT) can vary from one product to another depending on the nature and setup of the product. However, there are many common factors. Each PLIT owns all the responsibilities associated with developing their product. Still, they need to collaborate with their counterparts on BU/FU side as well as the product team and delegate the workload according to the team needs. Together with their counterparts on BU/FU side, PLIT ensures that quality products are delivered on time and, most importantly, that the product creates value for our business. The PLIT role is empowered to make decisions about their product. Therefore, together with the Product Lead BU (if

They, PLIT and PLBU, must make all the decisions about the product by knowing the business needs and expectations. In addition to the significant delivery responsibilities, the PLIT is also expected to establish a strong network and relationships, not only internally within the team, but also with the broader customer, stakeholder, and management groups relevant to their product. The PLIT must have a clear understanding of the competition and future trends of the domain or product and the solutions being developed.
