Position Summary:

• We're seeking a Technical Product Owner to lead the Enterprise Systems portfolio for Finance, covering FP&A, Accounting, Billing and Finance Systems. You will own the Finance technology roadmap across ERP, billing, planning and data platforms, including our enterprise data lake. You will be the single point where Finance's requests become ranked, funded and delivered work. You will work through an AI-assisted intake agent built on Claude, Slack, Jira and Confluence, connected to Finance's own intake tracker, and you will help improve it.
• Key Responsibilities:

Own the Finance intake funnel. Bring every Finance request, including those raised through Finance's own intake tracker, into one structured process: capture, duplicate checks, a vetting checklist and a disposition

Run the Finance Technology Portfolio OpCo. Prepare the themed roadmap, the open-intake rollup and capacity views. Lead the conversations to capture key decisions, navigate risks, and drive recommendations

Lead prioritization with Finance leaders. Facilitate live ranking sessions with FP&A and Finance leadership, record Business Priority and stacked rank, and drive through potential blockers and unknowns.

Shape the systems roadmap. Frame the major platform decisions (billing direction, ERP consolidation, system decommissions) as options with trade-offs, so Finance and Technology leadership can decide.

Facilitate business requirements, build technical requirements. Produce fill-in requirements documents for Finance stakeholders covering business rules, process, inputs, measurement and gating decisions. Make sure each answer maps to something the delivery team will build.

Protect data integrity. Define requirements for the data flows between CRM, billing, ERP, planning tools and data lake: revenue and order classification, reconciliations and month-end close dependencies.

Keep records honest. Sweep in-flight Finance records weekly against meetings, threads and related tickets, so status matches what was last agreed.

Partner with delivery teams. Hand vetted work to Solution Architects, Development Managers and owning ES teams. You own the "what" and "why"; they own the design and build.

Accept what ships. Define acceptance criteria and validate delivered features against Finance's controls and audit needs.
