• Requirements Gathering: Engage with business stakeholders to capture detailed requirements. Understand the business context, compliance implications, and user impact of every request.
• Story Writing: Translate business requirements into clear, actionable user stories with specific, testable acceptance criteria. Ensure stories include the what and why so technical teams can determine the how.
• Backlog Management: Maintain and prioritize the team backlog in Azure DevOps. Ensure stories are groomed, well-defined, and sequenced by business value.
• Technical Collaboration: Partner with Tech Leads during story review to ensure technical completeness. If the Tech Lead identifies architecture implications, flag the story for architecture review.
• Acceptance & Validation: Accept completed work against acceptance criteria (Level 1 validation). For bug fixes that impacted stakeholders, follow up post-deployment for stakeholder confirmation (Level 2). For new external-facing features, compliance changes, and financial calculations, conduct formal UAT with stakeholders (Level 3).
• Compliance Tracking: For compliance-flagged work, confirm filing dates, effective dates, and regulatory deadlines. Build timelines backward from hard deadlines and track throughout the delivery cycle.
• Stakeholder Communication: Provide progress updates, sprint demos, and release communications to business stakeholders. Maintain transparency on delivery status and timeline changes.
• Continuous Improvement: Pursue Product Owner certification if not already held. Attend training to sharpen requirements gathering, story writing, and backlog management skills.
