Product Owner, Digital Presence

As Product Owner for Digital Presence, you facilitate the transition from business needs and ideas to solutions, plans, and implementations in your area and across the entire system landscape.

The Digital Presence area includes the main content and lead generation website for Milestone as well as several independent web applications providing functionality to Milestone Employees, Partners, and Customers.

Your main responsibility is to maintain a prioritized backlog for the Digital Presence development team and a consolidated implementation plan. This ensures that there is a clear direction for the team and that the teams’ efforts are applied where it creates the most value for Milestone.

To do this you must work closely with business stakeholders to ensure that priorities are agreed across business areas. You bring stakeholders together and facilitate a shared understanding of value and any dilemmas that must be resolved.

You work closely with the Team Lead for the development team on coordination and planning – as Product Owner you are not a responsible for people management or for the daily operations of the team including any support or incident management needed.

You ensure that features are clearly defined: What should the outcome be? what value is achieved? what are the acceptance criteria? What are the dependencies to other deliverables inside or outside the team?

You facilitate the refinement of feature, and together with the Team Lead empower the team to be able to provide input so key questions can be answered: What are the solution designs? When can we have a plan? How is the feature broken down into increments (user stories)? What are the efforts needed to implement? How does the implementation plan look?

Increasingly initiatives must be coordinated across Product Owner areas to achieve the desired business results. You will therefore work with other Product Owners to ensure that coherent plans are created across teams, and that there is a shared sense of purpose for the complete change.
