Job Description
Senior Product Owner
3Pillar Global
• Own the backlog and story quality for a complex engagement — often spanning multiple engineering tracks or workstreams • Translate product strategy and roadmap from a 3Pillar PM or client PM into epics, stories, and acceptance criteria with a high degree of independence • Navigate ambiguity confidently: identify gaps in requirements, drive the right conversations to resolve them, and make well-reasoned decisions when direction is incomplete • Lead and facilitate backlog refinement sessions; ensure the team is never blocked waiting on story clarity • Actively participate in all Agile ceremonies as a senior, prepared contributor — and help shape ceremony effectiveness • Mentor and guide POs on the engagement; review their stories, raise the quality bar, and invest in their development • Partner with UX to ensure research findings and design decisions are translated faithfully and completely into the backlog • Communicate backlog health, scope risks, and delivery signals clearly to the PM and Delivery Lead • Champion AI-forward backlog practices — model effective use of AI in story writing, acceptance criteria, and requirements analysis; help the team adopt these habits • Contribute product context in client-facing sessions when needed — credible and clear on scope, requirements, and trade-offs.
Job Requirements
- 7+ years of experience as a Product Owner or Business Analyst on software delivery teams — intentionally senior-weighted relative to industry norms, reflecting the autonomy and complexity we expect at this level
- 4+ years in a consulting, professional services, or agency environment
- Proven track record of owning complex backlogs across multi-team or multi-track engagements
- Experienced working from both internal PM direction and direct client PM/PO direction
- Strong Agile/Scrum practitioner; understands how backlog quality drives delivery outcomes
- Highly autonomous — identifies and resolves requirements gaps without waiting to be directed
- Skilled at working alongside client PMs and POs: can take direction, push back constructively when needed, and build productive working relationships
- Credible in client-facing product conversations: clear on scope, requirements, and trade-offs
- Strong written communication; produces documentation that engineering, QA, and stakeholders can rely on
- Effective across globally distributed, cross-cultural teams
- Uses AI tools as a standard, established part of the PO workflow — not as an experiment
- Coaches and models AI-forward backlog and documentation practices for the broader team
- Uses AI to accelerate requirements analysis, edge case identification, acceptance criteria drafting, and sprint prep
- Evaluates AI outputs critically and helps others do the same
- Has written stories for products with AI/ML features — understands the backlog and acceptance criteria challenges that non-deterministic features introduce
- Familiar with how AI product capabilities (recommendations, NLP, generative features) affect requirements definition and testing strategy.
