As a Product Owner in the Lottery Data and Insights team you will be responsible for executing the product vision, strategy and roadmap for products in the Data and Insights capability area. Your contribution to the product vision and strategy is an essential component in how you will manage the roadmap and customer engagements, providing you with the ability to shape new features and help customers make the most of existing releases.
Reporting to the Senior Product Manager for Data and Insights you will be involved in working with our customers and engineering teams to own, shape and drive the products we create and maintain. You will have the autonomy to own and drive the release scoping and customer engagements for your assigned products.
You will oversee the development of these products from start to finish, working closely with Product Engineering to establish business requirements, identify new functionality and enhancements, manage the grooming of the feature backlog, establish release scope, as well as develop and prioritize themes, epics and stories to ensure work focuses on those with maximum value that are aligned with product strategy.
Through collaborative relationships across the enterprise and engaging with our customers (internal and external) you will help IGT and Lotteries utilize the products in your portfolio to achieve their business goals and deliver the desired business outcomes. Working directly in customer implementation projects allows you to bring back to the R&D backlog potential new features and functions identified for your products.
We believe small, multi-disciplinary teams are most effective in delivering complex change. As such, we are looking for someone with a collaborative mindset who is happy to be flexible and take on different responsibilities over the lifetime of our products.
