Job description

Product Owner

Location: McLean, VA - On-site

The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Product Owner who thrives at the intersection of data, strategy, and execution; someone who doesn’t just manage backlogs, but drives meaningful product outcomes.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of data-driven product initiatives within a highly complex, regulated environment. You’ll partner closely with engineering, data, and business stakeholders to transform requirements into impactful solutions that improve processes, enhance decision‑making, and deliver measurable value. This is a space where strong product thinking meets deep domain expertise; especially within the mortgage ecosystem.

About You

You’re not just a Product Owner; you’re a translator, a strategist, and a driver of momentum.

You understand data deeply; how it flows, how it transforms, and how it fuels business decisions. You’re comfortable navigating ambiguity, aligning stakeholders, and pushing initiatives forward without needing constant direction. You’ve likely worked in mortgage or financial services environments where precision, compliance, and data integrity matter.

You’re collaborative but decisive. You ask the right questions, challenge assumptions, and bring clarity where others see complexity. Most importantly, you care about building products that actually work; for users, for the business, and for the long term.

As a Strategio Product Owner you will:

• Define, prioritize, and manage product backlogs aligned with business goals and data‑driven strategies
• Translate complex stakeholder requirements into clear, actionable user stories
• Partner with engineering and data teams to deliver high‑quality products on time
• Drive product delivery end‑to‑end, including roadmap ownership and squad leadership
• Monitor product performance and iterate based on user feedback and insights
• Facilitate agile ceremonies and champion continuous improvement across teams
• Collaborate with QA teams to define test scenarios, support defect resolution, and ensure end‑to‑end product quality

Core Skills

• 8+ years of experience as a Product Owner and/or Data Analyst
• Strong expertise in the mortgage industry (processes, data, and regulatory context)
• Deep knowledge of ETL processes, data analysis, and Informatica
• Proven ability to independently drive product delivery (requirements, backlog, roadmap, leadership)
• Experience leading cross‑functional collaboration and business validation
• Strong partnership with QA teams, including testing strategy and execution support

Nice‑to‑Haves

• Familiarity with data platforms, analytics tools, or cloud technologies
• Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) or equivalent certification
• Experience working with distributed or global teams
• Exposure to regulatory or risk‑focused data initiatives
• Background in business analysis or data strategy
