Product Manager/Owner

Product Manager/Product Owner

We need someone who can act as a product owner, who learns the applications and the systems, understands how things work to a level of detail they can formulate the best/optimal design/technical solution and write specifications to instruct the developers on how to code, where to code etc. This will take a deep and detailed level of understanding of the software functionality. It is not a technical architect role where they will be involved in any real infrastructure decisions or applying external tools or software; it is very much understanding the current application framework and boutique custom functionality, database tables, stored procedures etc. to be able to write design changes to the application. It will take next level analytical skills and a dogged determination to learn.
