You never shy away from tough conversations and have a sixth sense for how to strategically grow key accounts by proactively exploring new opportunities and making recommendations on new features and functionality.

  • Create and maintain a product backlog with epics and user stories
  • Create product roadmaps and release plans

  • Facilitate communication between client stakeholders and development team members
  • Provide product demos and presentations to clients
  • Monitor and communicate project health through strategic KPIs determined by you and the client
  • Coordinate and run product launch activities
  • Facilitate product usability testing sessions

 

Qualification:

  • Agency experience highly preferred, client-facing experience is a must
  • 5+ years of Agile product management experience
  • Scrum-certification is a bonus
  • B2B and B2C software development experience
  • Strong experienced and understanding of web and mobile development technologies
  • Ability to pick up technical and business concepts quickly
  • Skilled at creating long-term product roadmaps and selling your ideas to a diverse audience
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
  • Capable of making beautiful and user-friendly presentations
  • Excellent organizational, time management, and project management skills

Our recruiting team will guide you through our evaluation and interviewing process. We will communicate an update on your status as soon as possible. The recruiting team member guiding you through this process is Jane Welch, and you can find her on LinkedIN Here. She is based in our Madison, WI office and looks forward to guiding you through this process.
