• Partner closely with development, QA, BA, Scrum, and business stakeholders.
• Present product recommendations and proposed solutions to senior stakeholders.
• Support modernization and continuous enhancement of a large-scale digital platform.
  
  

The emphasis on roadmap ownership, backlog prioritization, OKRs, user experience and product lifecycle management aligns closely with the original role specification.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of Product Owner, Digital Product Manager, or comparable product management experience.
• Demonstrated experience independently supporting or leading an Agile delivery pod.
• Strong Scrum/Agile delivery experience.
• Hands-on experience with roadmap development, backlog refinement, prioritization, and multi-initiative delivery.

• Ability to communicate effectively with technical teams without requiring hands-on development experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Financial services, digital banking, or retail banking experience.
• Experience supporting large-scale digital or customer-facing platforms.
• Exposure to .NET and/or Angular application environments.
• Product modernization / legacy transformation experience.
• Familiarity with assisted-channel or omnichannel customer experiences.
