ROLE_DESCRIPTION –
12+ years of PM/PO experience in a scaled agile environment (preferred)

Financial services / transfer agency / mutual fund domain background strongly preferred (NSCC, FundServ, DTCC exposure a plus)
Agile/Jira
Requirements gathering with business SMEs, architecture, and upstream/downstream partners
Writing user stories and GWT acceptance criteria; running backlog refinement, sprint planning, and POAT
Cross-team integration coordination (contract alignment, sequencing, dependencies)
Stakeholder communications, roadmap updates, and prep of program artifacts (status slides, etc.)
Program-support activities as they arise: defect triage, mock events, Production parallel testing (EPP Ignite/Amplify), consumer/producer check-ins, tabletops, training materials, RUN team onboarding, and production readiness
Track record of coordinating cross-team dependencies in a modernization or re-platforming program
Self-directed — can absorb context on an in-flight program and start adding value within 2–3 sprints
Strong communicator who flags risks early and keeps dependencies from going stale
Low-ego and collaborative — partners well with an already-established program team

Program-support activities as they arise: defect triage, mock events, Production parallel testing (EPP Ignite/Amplify), consumer/producer check-ins, table tops, training materials, RUN team onboarding, and production readiness
