• Measure Impact and Success: Develop and employ robust metrics to evaluate the growth, traction, and impact of SCF-funded teams. Use this data-driven approach to continually refine and adjust program strategies, ensuring maximum effectiveness and scalability.
• Champion Collaborative Innovation: Work closely with other members on the Ecosystem team to form a high-throughput funnel of projects, and align program initiatives with various SDF teams, including Business Development, Product, Investments, Liquidity, DevRel, and Marketing. 
• Stay Ahead of Industry Trends: Maintain a deep understanding of the evolving Stellar ecosystem and broader blockchain industry. Translate industry developments into actionable insights that inform program strategies and partnership choices.
