Global Payments is looking to ensure the successful delivery of solutions within their Accounts Payable (AP) platform, focusing on invoice automation, user experience (UX), and reporting & analytics.
Requirements
- Proven experience working within an Agile/Scrum team environment, with experience in managing software backlogs using tools like Jira, or similar.
- Strong ability to write clear, unambiguous, and testable user stories and acceptance criteria.
- Basic technical aptitude to discuss implementation details and potential trade-offs with engineers (e.g., familiar with micro-services, APIs, and front-end development).
Responsibilities
- Own and manage the team backlog: Define, refine, prioritize, and sequence the backlog (epics, features, user stories, tasks) based on direction from the Product Manager and engineering dependencies.
- Translate high-level product requirements, themes, and wireframes into clear, concise, and detailed user stories with defined acceptance criteria that are ready for immediate development.
- Ensure the engineering team always has a sufficient queue of well-defined and prioritized work for upcoming sprints.
- Actively participate in all Agile/Scrum ceremonies, including sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives, serving as the single source of truth for product requirements.
- Serve as the primary contact for the engineering and QA teams, answering questions, clarifying requirements, and quickly resolving impediments related to scope or functionality during the sprint.
- Formally inspect, test, and accept completed user stories against the defined acceptance criteria, verifying that the delivered solution meets the functional and non-functional requirements.
- Collaborate with QA to ensure comprehensive test coverage for all new and updated AP features.
Other
- 3+ years of professional experience, with at least 2 years as a Product Owner or Business Analyst in a software development environment.
- Familiarity with Accounts Payable (AP) processes, workflows, and challenges, ideally within a B2B SaaS or financial technology context.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to bridge the gap between business strategy (the "why") and technical implementation (the "how").
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field is preferred.
- Candidates must be legally authorized to work for any employer in the United States (or applicable country) on a full-time basis without the need for current or future immigration sponsorship.
