I have been working at AT&T for roughly two years now, and have been predominantly doing full Stack web development. I have been a part of a project which I joined post inception and 4 months before launch and I helped stand up the entire project. I led the product roadmap, vision, strategy, gathered user feedback, implemented Google analytics and used this data to drive product direction and focus, as well as the prioritisation of features. This was a cross functional project with stakeholders from all across the business, and has been a major success. My title is still a software engineer but I feel like my role has expanded greatly. I eventually want to move into product management, or developer advocacy. What steps can I take to improve my resume for these positions? I feel like listing software engineer on my resume is selling myself short. Of course I'm pretty fresh out of college and could be wrong. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

What title do you want exactly?
I feel like a PM is more fitting since I manage all aspects the the product. But as others have said, maybe this is in line with Senior Software Engineer.
I will be honest and tell you that you will have a hard time finding a PM role with your title being a software engineer... Chances of you getting interviews will be hard unless its for a TPM(Technical Product Manager) role for your specific skill set. I am currently a sr tester with a little over 5 years of exp and have applied to a bunch of Product role even junior ones. I still haven't received even a single call back. Right now what I am doing is changing my strategy and applying internally within my company so I would suggest you do the same. You obviously are working with PM wait another year until another PM role opens up and talk to the hiring manager. You might have a leg up since they know you vs applying externally with your title
You’re just describing a senior software engineer
Okay thank you, this clarifies things.
