Consumer & Small and Medium Business Subscriptions Product Owner

This role is responsible for defining, planning, and executing the product strategy, collaborating with various teams to deliver software solutions that delight customers and enhance our Consumer & Small and Medium Business (SMB) Subscription offerings. The role plans and manages technical programs or projects, effectively steering them to meet specific roadmap and feature objectives. The role develops a comprehensive software vision and roadmap for product initiatives.

Core Responsibilities (What you will do):

• Define and evolve the digital solution vision for Enterprise Operations enablement across subscription print experiences (enrollment, billing, servicing, lifecycle operations).
• Translate business objectives into capabilities and features, ensuring traceability from strategy → epics → features → stories → acceptance criteria.
• Maintain alignment between product roadmap, operational readiness, and delivery sequencing across internal partner teams.

Requirements Engineering & Backlog Ownership (JIRA)

• Facilitate structured requirements discovery to capture:
• Business objectives, scope boundaries, assumptions, constraints, risks, and dependencies
• End-to-end workflow requirements, exception handling, and operational controls
• Create and manage high-quality JIRA artifacts (epics, features, user stories, enablers) with:
• Clear problem statements and outcomes
• Detailed functional requirements and non-functional requirements (NFRs)
• Acceptance criteria, validations, and test considerations
• Ensure backlog readiness for development through grooming, prioritization, and dependency management.

Cross-Functional Facilitation & Stakeholder Management

• Plan, lead, and document business + technical workshops to converge on solution design and operational feasibility.
• Identify, engage, and consult subject matter experts (SMEs) to build comprehensive requirements across complex domains (e.g., billing, invoicing, payments, finance, logistics, regulatory).
• Drive decision-making through tradeoff analysis (cost/benefit, timeline, risk) and clearly communicate outcomes.

Solution Design & Operational Enablement

• Partner with architects/designers to define functional decomposition, integrations, data flows, and business rules.
• Ensure solutions support operational execution needs, including:
• Monitoring/controls, auditability, exception management, and support readiness
• Produce delivery-ready functional artifacts (as applicable):
• Process flows, use cases, state transitions, business rules catalogs, interface/event requirements, and reporting needs.

Delivery Partnership & Lifecycle Support

• Partner with engineering teams to support implementation through:
• Sprint planning inputs, scope clarifications, and change control
• UAT readiness, defect triage, and release validation
• Coordinate with partner orgs and downstream consumers (e.g., TIO, CSS, support operations) to ensure integrated outcomes.

Typical Solution Areas You May Drive (Examples)

• Subscription enrollment expansions that require localized requirements
• Design and requirements for fees and policy-driven charging logic (activation, cancellation, unreturned equipment, return shipping, early cancellation schedules), including operational workflows and finance/legal alignment.
• Payment methods enablement (e.g., Apple Pay/PayPal, SEPA-like direct debit flows)
• Regulatory/disclosure-driven requirements (e.g., copyright levy/invoice presentation implications and the operational/accounting impacts of subscription models)
• Governance-aligned deliverables such as business requirements, system design inputs, process mapping, UAT support, and cross-functional operating readiness.

Key Interfaces / Stakeholders

• Enterprise Operations functional teams (billing/invoicing, finance ops, order management, supply chain/logistics, customer support operations)
• Digital solution designers, architects, and development teams
• Cross-org partners requiring EO interaction (e.g., TIO, CSS, other dependent platforms and services)
• Legal/Compliance, Tax, and Finance stakeholders for policy/regulatory-driven requirements

Success Measures (What "Good" Looks Like)

• Backlog quality: requirements are clear, testable, and implementation-ready with minimal rework.
• Cross-team alignment: stakeholders converge on scope, priorities, and decisions efficiently.
• Delivery outcomes: solutions meet business intent, operational needs, and integration requirements with successful release validation/UAT support.
• Stakeholder confidence: teams consistently rely on this role as the "single source of truth" for requirements and solution intent.
