I've done this. The problem will be missed communication that folks will assume you know. It will be critical to adopt and enforce or otherwise encourage good written down communication habits. Meeting summaries in emails, agendas on meetings, water cooler summaries noted in team slack channel, and having effective daily stand ups. Having your manager champion the habits is really, really helpful and I liked when mine would add to the slack channel "@seth for visibility" or adding summaries of in-office updates. COVID and remote work has really helped because all our comms are now mostly written down, and going forward, I'd expect most people to have a good appreciation of keeping communication up.
