About our team:

You will be joining a collaborative, curious, team of Product Owners all different levels. By joining us you will have the opportunity to share ownership in solving this problem end to end. From exploring new data sources for building features, to design and put in production predictive models and make sure they perform consistently over time.

About the Job:

We’re looking for a driven, innovative Product Owner to work with one of our many platform teams. All the teams manage the flow of a variety of data sets that are the beating ‘data heart’ of our global business and flow throughout our business powering our suite of industry leading products. Central to accelerating our next generation technology strategy (our Town Plan), the goal is for every piece of data we have stored in the Cirium Data Platform (CDP) and every data product we build to be sourced from the CDP. From there the platform teams need to provide the various delivery platforms from flat files to APIs to data warehouse.

About You:

• This isn't your first Product rodeo. You will have Product Owner experience, where you have worked with software development teams using an Agile Scrum methodology
• You communicate the vision for your team and then make it happen. You work with leaders of other groups and teams to refine your team’s vision and drive the quarterly roadmap for how you'll solve those problems. You know how to turn vision into goals, goals into a roadmap, and a roadmap into daily and weekly tasks for your team. You excel at keeping a cross-functional team of subject matter experts, designers, engineers, architects, QA, data analysts, and data owners working effectively and efficiently
• You know how to get results. Through collaboration with your team, you routinely deliver meaningful results for the business. You share, celebrate, and build momentum around positive results. You learn and course correct when you don’t get the results you want
• You are data driven. You use data to uncover opportunities and understand what levers to pull to drive business results. You know how to measure the results of your work, test it with stakeholders, and understand its downstream effect
• You have ample technical and analytical skills. While you may or may not know how to code, you have the technical know-how to support yourself and your team. You use your technical context to make better, faster decisions
• You are a skilled communicator. Cirium is a diverse, global team so you need strong verbal and written communication to convey your team’s vision, roadmap, and progress. You know the right tool for the job whether it’s managing the day-to-day cadence of projects or building cross-company momentum around a project
• You love doing things efficiently and working smart. This Product Owner role is pivotal to the success of our Platform teams, the CDP and acceleration of our Town Plan. The work you do will have a big impact on the business. We believe in systems and processes that let us scale our impact to be larger than ourselves
