  • Advance self-service and payment capabilities by defining requirements for account inquiries, updates, pay-by-phone experiences, and other high-value servicing needs, coordinating payment and backend integrations
  • Coordinate cross-functional delivery with Telephony and Messaging teams, Ava lead, engineering, platform owners, vendors, and business partners to resolve dependencies and maintain delivery readiness
  • Preserve customer context by defining requirements to carry identity, authentication status, intent, and interaction history across systems, ensuring customers can continue their journey without unnecessary repetition
  • Own product acceptance and launch readiness, validating delivered capabilities against acceptance criteria, coordinating business testing, operational readiness, phased releases, and post-launch monitoring
  • Manage product performance and continuous improvement using interaction data, customer feedback, and operational insights to improve containment, task completion, routing accuracy, authentication success, transfer rates, and cost to serve
  • Embed controls and reliability by incorporating compliance, privacy, payment security, monitoring, error handling, and recovery requirements with appropriate partners
  • Communicate priorities and progress, providing clear updates on roadmap decisions, delivery status, risks, dependencies, and business outcomes
WHAT YOU BRING

  • Demonstrated experience in product ownership or product management, including accountability for a roadmap and prioritized backlog
  • Strong ability to translate complex business needs into clear epics, user stories, business rules, and testable acceptance criteria
