Deliverable
production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work -> production ML models (Incorrect mapping in thought, correcting to: production ML models is wrong. Correct deliverable is: production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work. The role builds programs. Let's map to 'product features' or 'client delivery' or 'infrastructure'. Actually, 'production ML models' is wrong. 'dashboards & analysis' is wrong. 'client delivery' is wrong. 'infrastructure' is wrong. 'physical/clinical work' is wrong. The closest is 'product features' (building the program) or 'client delivery'. Let's use 'product features' as they build the rewards program structure. Wait, the instruction says: 'Deliverable: <one of: production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work>'. This role builds compensation/benefits programs. None fit perfectly. 'product features' is the best fit for building a system/program. 'client delivery' is for external clients. 'infrastructure' is for tech infra. Let's select 'product features' as they are building the internal product of rewards. Actually, looking at the list again, none are perfect. But 'product features' is the standard for building internal tools/programs in this taxonomy. Let's use that.
