Partner with engineering, architecture, UX/design, analysts, and Product Owners to validate solutions, define features and acceptance criteria, and resolve delivery trade-offs. Define success measures before development; establish baselines as data becomes available and use post-launch adoption and outcomes to guide improvements. Recommend feature priorities based on needs, strategy, regulatory obligations, risk, dependencies, and capacity. Engage Legal, Compliance, Risk, Security, Operations, and Marketing early to ensure the end product meets the business, security, and compliance needs. Align and manage work with vendors and business partners on solution needs, integrations, delivery expectations, and operational readiness. Build alignment on product direction through clear problem framing and evidence-based recommendations. Communicate roadmap priorities, risks, decisions, trade-offs, and outcomes to business and technical stakeholders. Required Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree and 5+ years of relevant product management experience, with relevant retirement services and recordkeeping domain experience preferred. Strong understanding of the software product lifecycle and agile delivery (SAFe preferred), including discovery, feature roadmaps, requirements, solution validation, launch, and iteration.

Excellent interpersonal, motivational, influencing and relationship-building skills. Exceptional written and oral communication skills, including a developed ability to present to audiences of varying backgrounds and expertise. Demonstrated ability to lead product work across engineering, design, Product Owners, and business partners, influencing decisions and resolving trade-offs without direct reporting authority.
