• Be the SME: Develop deep knowledge of your assigned value stream to guide priorities, answer questions, and ensure deliverables meet business needs.
• Provide Transparency: Deliver progress updates, sprint demos, and reports to stakeholders and leadership.
• Support Quality: Participate in user acceptance testing (UAT) to validate requirements and ensure high-quality releases.
• Continuous Improvement: Attend Product Owner training and pursue certification (if not already held) to sharpen your skills.

• Familiarity with API integrations, data mapping, and system-to-system conversions.
• Analytical Skills: Strong ability to dig into processes, ask the right questions, and produce precise requirements.
• Critical Thinking: Comfortable being challenged on fundamentals (requirements gathering, user stories, BRD writing) and able to clearly explain thought processes.
• Influence & Communication: Proven ability to engage stakeholders, clarify priorities, and gain alignment.
• Documentation & Presentation: Excellent written documentation skills and ability to deliver engaging demos.
