Job description

Overview

From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company – one that not only celebrated coffee and rich tradition, but also brought a feeling of connection. We are known for developing extraordinary leaders who share this passion and are guided by their service to others.

Responsibilities

• Define product value and direction by aligning business and technical objectives, setting clear priorities, and establishing product health/performance metrics and KPIs.
• Translate needs into buildable work by writing well‑formed epics/user stories, defining acceptance criteria and non‑functional requirements (performance, scalability, resilience, usability, accessibility, security, continuity), and clarifying tradeoffs, dependencies, and constraints.
• Drive delivery and outcomes through iterative Agile practices, partnering with design and engineering on sizing and planning, removing blockers, facilitating user review/acceptance, and measuring feature success post‑launch to improve product health.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent experience in a related field)
• 7+ years delivering complex products in a technology environment
• 5+ years using analytics/optimization tools to inform product planning and prioritization
• 5+ years partnering with design and engineering to deliver customer‑facing features, including building roadmaps/backlogs and writing/refining user stories
• Supply chain planning experience a must (supply and demand planning)

Preferred Qualifications

• 7+ years delivering complex products in a technology environment, including cross‑team roadmaps and technically complex features
• Recent experience building for web and/or mobile, and ability to read/understand code (prior programming experience a plus)
• 5+ years of hands‑on product planning: technical roadmaps, story outlines, acceptance criteria, and backlog refinement at scale
• Strong ability to influence without authority, communicate clearly, and stay organized while managing competing priorities; deep familiarity with Agile practices and tools
• Experience designing solutions/configuring planning platforms such as o9, SAP, Oracle, Anaplan or others and integrating them with ERP systems
• Knowledge of APIs, data interfaces, ETL processes, and other integration mechanisms used to connect planning and operational systems
• Familiarity with Databricks and experience supporting data pipelines and data validation activities
• Ability to work closely with data engineering teams to define data requirements, validate data flows, and support initiatives
• Experience with data mapping, data governance, interface validation, and integration testing activities
