Position Summary

Our client, who operates in a highly regulated insurance environment, is looking for a Product Owner to support the launch of a newly formed finance-focused product domain. This role is a contract opportunity with remote flexibility anywhere in the United States.

This Product Owner will step into a highly visible initiative centered on financial data accuracy, business process clarity, and modernization of legacy system workflows. The ideal candidate brings a blend of Product Owner and Business Analyst capabilities, with the ability to quickly understand complex backend processes, translate ambiguity into actionable work, and partner closely with both technical teams and business stakeholders.

This role will be focused on documenting current-state financial processes, supporting data cleanup and migration efforts, improving reporting reliability, and helping the organization transition critical workflows away from legacy platforms and into modern environments. The work is expected to be heavily data and process oriented, with significantly less emphasis on user interface or customer-facing product design.

Responsibilities

• Own and prioritize the backlog for a newly established finance domain, ensuring work is aligned to business goals, operational risk, and platform modernization efforts
• Partner with finance stakeholders, technical teams, and business partners to gather requirements, clarify needs, and translate complex business processes into actionable epics, features, and user stories
• Drive detailed discovery and documentation of current-state financial workflows, system logic, dependencies, and upstream/downstream data impacts
• Help uncover and map business processes that are not yet well documented, including legacy logic embedded in long-standing systems
• Facilitate the transition of financial processes and reporting workflows from legacy environments to modern platforms
• Support data cleanup and data quality initiatives by identifying process gaps, inconsistencies, and root causes of reporting inaccuracies

Minimum Experience

• 3+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Business Analyst, or a blended PO/BA professional in an agile environment
• Proven experience working on backend, data-intensive, or process-heavy initiatives rather than primarily UI-focused product work
• Strong ability to gather requirements, document workflows, and translate complex business needs into clear technical work items
• Experience working with cross-functional teams that include business stakeholders, developers, QA, and data/reporting resources
• Demonstrated success navigating ambiguity and building structure in environments where processes are not fully documented
