You have the enthusiasm and organizational skills to motivate the team, create better solutions, ensure releases are on schedule, and regularly communicate status and impediments to the business. As a passionate Product Owner, you will explain and prioritize feature requests. We want you to be an innovator and challenge the teams to help iManage improve and scale our existing products and features.
