Job Summary:
The Sr. Technical Product Owner-Policy and Product is accountable for defining, shaping, and governing the end-to-end technical solutions that support a portfolio of products within a value stream. This role works in close partnership with Product Owners, Architects, and Engineering teams to ensure business needs are translated into cohesive, scalable, secure, and compliant technical solutions.
Rather than owning a single product, the Technical Product Owner focuses on how systems work together—aligning architecture, integrations, data flows, non-functional requirements, and platform capabilities to solve complex business problems. The TSO ensures that proposed solutions are technically feasible, strategically aligned, and executable by delivery teams.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of business intent, architectural design, and engineering execution.
