  • Align priorities, requirements, scope boundaries, assumptions, and decisions with relevant business and technical stakeholders
  • Strongly influence the evolution of your domain and its technical roadmap
  • Create, maintain, and prioritize the product backlog, structuring it into incremental releases
  • Translate product features into detailed technical user stories for backend services and domain logic
  • Define functional and non-functional acceptance criteria and ensure testability
  • Coordinate with other Product Owners to identify integration points across domains and ensure product and release coherence
  • Provide transparency on scope, priorities, status, risks, and dependencies
  • Actively contribute to relevant Scrum and SAFe events by clarifying priorities and requirements, enabling timely decisions, and ensuring a shared understanding of intended outcomes
  • Track progress and coordinate the prioritization and resolution of production issues
