Job Description

This is a remote position.

Experience Level

We're looking for a seasoned Product Owner with at least 2–4 years of experience owning a product backlog end-to-end within an Agile delivery environment. You should be a delivery craftsperson who can demonstrate a track record of turning ambiguous, cross-team requirements into shipped, working software — with particular comfort operating inside platforms where your product's success depends on coordination with teams you don't manage.

Role Overview

As a Product Owner, you will own the backlog and delivery cadence for one product within a tightly interconnected platform, where your product's roadmap depends on — and feeds into — several sibling products. You'll act as the point of alignment between engineering teams, supporting product managers, and client stakeholders, translating business and compliance needs into backlog items ready for a development team to execute against.

A key part of the role is holding the line on requirements quality: defining clear acceptance criteria before work enters a sprint, and sequencing competing demands — new features, maintenance of live services, and production support — that your team carries simultaneously. Because your product does not operate in isolation, a large part of the job is coordinating dependencies across teams that don't report to you.

Key Responsibilities

Backlog Ownership & Requirements Definition: Own and prioritize the product backlog; define acceptance criteria for accuracy, completeness, and readiness before stories are marked sprint-ready.
Cross-Team Dependency Coordination: Sequence and negotiate delivery across multiple dependent engineering teams (platform, integration, infrastructure, and adjacent product teams), since most features require multi-team scheduling rather than single-team execution.
Delivery Prioritization Under Competing Demands: Balance new feature development, maintenance of live production services, and active production support within the same backlog, without letting one silently starve the others.
Domain Ramp-Up: Build working depth in the specific technical and regulatory domain tied to your assigned product — this may include healthcare EDI transaction standards, web-automation/data-extraction reliability, credential and access-security models, or regulated payments and remittance processing, depending on placement.
Stakeholder & Requirements Governance: Partner with the supporting Product Manager and client-side stakeholders to close open requirement decisions before development starts, hold sign-off discipline, and manage rework risk from late-stage scope changes.
Data & Interface Quality Ownership: Where your product's output feeds downstream systems, own the interface contract (field definitions, data completeness, naming) to prevent avoidable rework further down the chain.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

Proven Product Ownership Experience: Track record owning a backlog end-to-end in an Agile environment, ideally within a platform where products are tightly coupled rather than independent.
Domain Adaptability: Comfort ramping quickly into unfamiliar technical or regulatory domains — some assignments require near-immediate fluency (e.g., regulated payments, EDI standards), while others allow for a longer runway.
Cross-Functional Coordination Skills: Demonstrated ability to sequence work and resolve competing priorities across multiple engineering teams that don't report into the same chain.
Analytical Rigor: Ability to write precise, testable acceptance criteria and reason through data quality or completeness gaps before they become delivery blockers.
Strong Stakeholder Communication: Comfortable representing product status and trade-offs to both engineering teams and client-facing stakeholders, in plain, non-technical language when needed.
Judgment Under Ambiguity: Able to recognize when a decision needs escalation versus independent ownership — particularly important for the more regulation-heavy assignments, where working without senior support isn't advisable early on.
