POD Leadership & Scrum Mastery: Lead all Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, sprint planning, grooming, retrospectives) for dedicated product PODs to ensure team alignment and unblock technical impediments. Product Roadmap & Backlog Management: Serve as the primary architect of the product backlog in Jira, ensuring epics and user stories are strategically structured to deliver continuous business value. Executive Stakeholder Prioritization: Partner with Business Sponsors and business leaders to define and prioritize product features based on ROI and revenue impact. Value-Based Metrics & Reporting: Beyond team velocity, track and communicate Business Value Metrics (e.g., user adoption, process efficiency gains) to provide visibility to the PMO Steering Committee. Agile Transformation & Mentorship: Lead the IT department's shift from project-based work to a product-centric model, coaching teams on advanced Jira workflows and "spikes" for innovation. Product Analysis & Requirements Management Product Discovery & Lifecycle Management: Lead the discovery phase for new product features, identifying capability gaps and translating high-level business desires into detailed technical specs. Advanced User Stories & Acceptance Criteria: Define the "Definition of Done" for complex integrations, ensuring the development team has absolute clarity on functional requirements. Quality Assurance & Product Integrity: Partner with QA and developers to ensure the final product aligns with the original vision, managing the transition from project "Go-Live" to Business as Usual (BAU) operations.
