The VASTech RFO (Regional Fulfillment Offers) team collaborates with multiple platform teams to align on roadmap intakes, secure leadership commitment, and facilitate contributions through the build-operate-transfer model. Additionally, the team is responsible for tracking regionalization efforts independently managed by these platform teams.
RFO was launched in US marketplace in Q1 2022. RFO has since been rolled-out in multiple emerging marketplaces. While the overall regionalization requirements are broadly similar across marketplaces, each marketplace has specific nuances that need incremental features. Each feature has to be designed and built with WW applicability in mind to enable economies of scope and to ensure development done for one marketplace can benefit all others. These considerations are often technically complex and influence the data model and architecture of the solution. As a result, RFO engineers and SDMs will work with multiple product management teams and program managers for every incremental feature.
