Description: Our client is currently seeking a Product Owner-Hybrid
As a Product Owner in company Data and Insights team you will be responsible for executing the product vision, strategy and roadmap for products in the Data and Insights capability area.
Your contribution to the product vision and strategy is an essential component in how you will manage the roadmap and customer engagements, providing you with the ability to shape new features and help customers make the most of existing releases.
Reporting to the Senior Product Manager for Data and Insights you will be involved in working with our customers and engineering teams to own, shape and drive the products we create and maintain. You will have the autonomy to own and drive the release scoping and customer engagements for your assigned products.

You will oversee the development of these products from start to finish, working closely with Product Engineering to establish business requirements, identify new functionality and enhancements, manage the grooming of the feature backlog, establish release scope, as well as develop and prioritize themes, epics and stories to ensure work focuses on those with maximum value that are aligned with product strategy.

Through collaborative relationships across the enterprise and engaging with our customers (internal and external) you will help company and clients utilize the products in your portfolio to achieve their business goals and deliver the desired business outcomes.

Working directly in customer implementation projects allows you to bring back to the R&D backlog potential new features and functions identified for your products.

We believe small, multi-disciplinary teams are most effective in delivering complex change.

As such, we are looking for someone with a collaborative mindset who is happy to be flexible and take on different responsibilities over the lifetime of our products.

With focus on both Product Development (products to the shelf) and Product Adoption (with our customers), the Product Owner is the key role in bringing an outside-in perspective to our product roadmaps and vision.

As a Product Owner you will:

•Understand and help contribute to the product manager's vision for company's Data and Insight products

•Own the Data and Insight products, elaborating features into technical requirements with Product Engineering, defining, managing, and overseeing delivery of the team backlog, acceptance testing of products to the shelf

•Oversee all stages of product creation (including design and development) by liaising closely with product engineering leaders who will manage the day-to-day engineering efforts

•Create customer-specific artifacts (e.g., Business Process Flows, Functional Specifications, Use Cases, Customer Requirements Documents, Configuration Questionnaires)

•Cooperate with other stakeholders, such as Marketing, Legal and Security

•Provide guidance, and ongoing support for customers to drive product usage

•Support pre-sales efforts and represent Data and Insight products in customer presentations

•BS in Mathematics, Engineering, Economics, Analytics, Computer Science, Business, Product Management, or a related field

•3+ years of experience in financial, business systems analysis role or as a product owner in business related field

•Primarily business background (>50%) as well as experience translating business requirements into technical terms (< 50%)

•Experience with business intelligence tools such as Power BI or Tableau is a major plus

•A strong understanding of product management and software development methods (SDLC), applied concepts and tools in modern product management and product design

•The ability to solve complex challenges and convert them into structured solutions, which are actionable for both internal and external stakeholders

•Strong interpersonal, communication and collaboration skills

•Ability to influence without authority, working with team members who do not report into this role to get things done

•Strong project management, organizational and management skills, including ability to manage and prioritize multiple competing initiatives with aggressive multi-project schedule
