  • Develop a strong understanding of business practices and procedures to help identify future opportunities where Data & Analytics can add value
  • Nurture a feedback loop that continuously improves and innovates on the experience people have with Data Products by influencing an integrated functional backlog together with the other Product Owners
  • Support the squads you'll work with during the discovery process by translating high level business outcomes into high level designs and meaningful delivery outcomes while ensuring data best practices and patterns

  • Writes and speaks persuasively, analysing and summarising the key issues.
  • Ability to see the big picture, understand the key stakeholders needs, and facilitate clarity for the squad and stakeholders
  • Experience using a range of metrics to monitor the success and health of products and services
