  • Build out and maintain the product backlog by writing epics and user stories
  • Set the priority of work for the team
  • Create new digital capabilities, while ensuring the ongoing maintainability, security, performance, and viability of the product
  • Steer decisions based on your detailed knowledge of clients’ needs, feedback, and analytics
  • Ensure compliance of the product with risk, security policies, and architecture and technology standards
  • Support audit requests/activities and be accountable that evidence for adherence/compliance is available and up-to-date
  
  In addition to your Product Owner responsibilities within the agile scrum team, we are looking for your product management expertise to:
  
  • Understand client and stakeholder needs through research, analysis, and hypothesis testing
  • Assess and understand the market and competitive landscape
  • Understand the end-to-end client journey and how your product solves pain points along that journey
  • Ensure the product is being tested with clients to gain insights and ensure readiness to launch before market entry
  • Ensure clients have a high quality product experience by performing user acceptance testing (UAT), managing defects, and facilitating timely resolution of production issues
  • Lead certain agile ceremonies
  • Foster strong working relationships with stakeholders and ensure stakeholder alignment
  • Develop launch plans and collaborate with stakeholders on communications, marketing, and training
  • Coordinate reviews and approvals with legal, risk, compliance, and other control functions
  • Help with buy vs. build analysis and manage vendor relationships
  • Track product-specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  Your team

  In our agile operating model, crews are aligned to products and services fulfilling client needs, and encompass multiple scrum teams called “pods”.

  • Translation of client needs into technology-driven solutions
  • Well-versed in tools such as Jira, GitLab, and Confluence
  • You are client-obsessed

  • Focus on client outcomes over output and deliverables
  • Team player with an enthusiastic and proactive personality
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Active listener with effective verbal and written communication skills
