Requirements
- 5+ years of experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager for complex enterprise systems - grants management, investment management, financial operations, ERP, or data-intensive platforms strongly preferred.
- Demonstrated ability to thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments - comfortable owning decisions with incomplete information and course-correcting quickly as context evolves.
- Proven track record of driving clarity: converting vague stakeholder needs into well-defined, actionable product requirements that engineering teams can execute confidently.
- High agency and self-starter mentality - you identify gaps, create structure where none exists, and move work forward without needing to be directed.
- Strong command of agile methodologies; experience owning and grooming a complex multi-team backlog in Jira or equivalent.
- Solid understanding of data architecture, system integrations, and APIs - enough to participate meaningfully in technical discussions and make informed scoping decisions.
- Experience defining requirements for data-heavy applications: dashboards, reporting tools, analytics views, and multi-entity data models.
- Familiarity with AI/ML capabilities and practical experience scoping AI-assisted features for enterprise users.
- Active user of AI productivity tools with genuine curiosity about how they can accelerate product development and improve user outcomes.
- Exceptional communication and facilitation skills - equally effective in an executive briefing, a stakeholder workshop, and a sprint review.
- Familiarity with Figma sufficient to review and give feedback on UX designs, wireframes, and prototypes.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or related field; advanced degree a plus.
Additional Information
Our client is a Tech/Family Office company serving the investments, foundations, and activities of a prominent family. With a broad mandate, the organization oversees diverse assets and programs, including multiple foundations and institutes. Across its entities, it manages hundreds of employees and oversees significant annual expenditures, ranging from grants and gifts to private investments and operational costs. They are seeking a Product Owner to drive the strategy, prioritization, and delivery of complex enterprise systems spanning investment management, grants administration, financial, and legal operations. This is a high-ownership role in a fast-moving environment where requirements are frequently ambiguous, stakeholder needs evolve quickly, and the ability to drive clarity is just as important as the ability to ship. You will own the product backlog, align cross-functional teams, and ensure that engineering effort consistently delivers measurable business value. The ideal candidate is a decisive, systems-oriented operator who thrives without a detailed playbook and knows how to cut through complexity to keep teams moving.
