The Work You'll Do:

As a Senior Product Owner, you will be responsible for ensuring that market and product requirements are appropriately reflected and implemented in finished products. This largely inward-facing role serves as the main liaison between product marketing, product management, and the engineering team. You will be an expert on the functionality of a specific product, supporting other groups such as sales engineering, implementation, and technical support/customer service.

More specifically, you will:

• Serve as main liaison between product management and the engineering team, understanding the product strategy as defined by product management
• Collect product requirements from key buyer audiences and end users
• Coordinate the creation of product mockups and prototypes
• Fulfill the "product owner role," principally responsible for prioritization and maintaining (or grooming) a backlog which maximizes outcomes aligned with the product strategy (roadmap) for one or multiple agile development teams
• Write and present the product requirements document
• Oversee and sign off on the functional spec
• Oversee the product as it is being built by development/engineering
• Leverage AI-powered tools to enhance productivity, streamline backlog management, and accelerate decision-making
• Communicate with stakeholders during the development of a product to keep them updated
• Coordinate testing of a product, including user acceptance testing, alpha and beta programs
• Collect, coordinate, and prioritize bug fixes
• Proactively collaborate to align cross-functional teams (in particular Professional Services and Support) on strategy, planned releases, and growth
• Consistently ensure alignment by engaging stakeholders at the right time and using a wide range of communication techniques to paint a clear picture of 'why, how, and when'
• Optimize priorities and scope to ensure maximum value is delivered (maximize outcomes, not outputs)

What We Need From You

• 5-10 years in a related field or similar role
• Experience in B2B SaaS business analysis or product development preferred
• Complete understanding of the "Product Owner" role
• Subject matter expertise of a Sovos product portfolio segment and/or instrumental technology
• Ability to balance gut-feel judgment and logical analysis; willingness to make decisions decisively
• Ability to define priorities and lead teams with a results-driven attitude
• Familiarity with AI-powered productivity tools and a willingness to integrate them into your workflow
• Strong communication skills with the ability to engage stakeholders effectively
• Proactive collaboration skills to align cross-functional teams on strategy and releases
• Commitment to maximizing outcomes and delivering value
• Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check and drug test upon hire
