• Partner with leadership to refine and evolve the infill BOOL strategy over time
• Track performance against infill acquisition targets at the market and submarket level; identify gaps and implement corrective actions
• Work closely with Acquisitions to improve lot sourcing outcomes, including market focus, pricing strategy, and broker engagement

• Drive coordination across Acquisitions, Architecture, Preconstruction, Product, and Construction Operations to ensure markets are set up to scale
• Own key workstreams required to launch and ramp new infill markets
• Act as the connective tissue between teams to ensure alignment and execution against infill plan
