  • Make day-to-day prioritization decisions across new feature development, technical enablers, customer commitments, and production issues, balancing business value, urgency, and feasibility.
  • Drive defect management processes, including triage, prioritization, root-cause follow-up, and communication on severity, impact, and resolution status.
  • Support release planning and readiness by coordinating scope, validating completion against acceptance criteria, and ensuring clear communication of release content, timing, risks, and downstream impacts.
  • Serve as the primary point of clarity for the delivery team by answering requirement questions, removing ambiguity, and helping the team make timely decisions during the sprint.
  • Use product, operational, and customer feedback data to inform backlog priorities, continuous improvement opportunities, and post-release adjustments.
  • Communicate sprint progress, backlog tradeoffs, release updates, and delivery risks clearly to stakeholders across product, technology, and business teams.
  • Help strengthen team ways of working by improving backlog hygiene, sprint predictability, release discipline, and cross-functional coordination.
What You Need:
  • Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, computer science, information systems, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of experience in product ownership, product management, business analysis, or a related role supporting agile software delivery, preferably in a B2B environment.
  • Hands-on experience managing and prioritizing product backlogs, writing user stories, and defining acceptance criteria for delivery teams.
  • Working knowledge of scrum practices and experience participating in sprint planning, backlog refinement, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.
  • Experience coordinating defect triage and resolution processes in partnership with engineering and QA teams.
  • Experience supporting release planning, release readiness, and stakeholder communications for software deployments.
  • Ability to evaluate competing priorities using customer impact, business value, technical constraints, and delivery risk.
  • Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills with the ability to work effectively across technical and business teams.
Preferred Skills
  • Strong understanding of agile delivery principles and the ability to maintain a healthy, value-driven backlog.
  • Ability to break down complex initiatives into clear stories, define done criteria, and support consistent sprint execution.
  • Experience partnering closely with engineering and QA to manage defects, production issues, and release quality.
  • Comfort communicating release scope, sprint outcomes, dependencies, and risks to stakeholders in a concise and actionable way.
  • Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and follow-through across multiple workstreams and timelines.
  • Experience helping teams improve delivery processes, backlog discipline, or scrum maturity is a plus.
