This role is intended for a product leader with strong technical credibility, prior hands-on software development experience, and a builder mindset. The ideal candidate combines startup-style speed, ownership, and pragmatism with the ability to scale teams, products, and delivery in a complex cross-functional environment.
This leader will directly lead the Technical Product Owner function, strengthening technical product management across mobile, web, backend, platform, and shared experience services.

- Drive clarity in ownership, decision rights, governance, prioritization, and execution cadence across the Products and Experiences operating model.
- Ensure product discovery, delivery, quality, compliance, and release readiness work as one connected system.
- Champion a builder culture with a startup mindset: high ownership, bias for action, rapid learning, and disciplined execution.
- Use data and operating metrics to improve product outcomes, delivery predictability, throughput, quality, and customer impact.
- Support platform reuse and shared capabilities in partnership with Platform, Architecture, and Engineering leaders.
- Serve as the senior product and experience leader with executive stakeholders, ensuring clear communication of priorities, trade-offs, risks, and performance.
- Leads the TPO function and ensures technical product execution is aligned with product strategy and business priorities.
- Partners with Engineering and Architecture leaders on solution direction, sequencing, technical trade-offs, and long-term platform evolution.
- Works with Commercial and business stakeholders to align product investments with customer and market needs.
