What Is the Opportunity?

Travelers is seeking a Agile Product Owner to lead a team to deliver capabilities/solutions in an agile way. In this position, you will act as a voice of the end-user to guide day-to-day work of a smaller scale team, focusing on achievement of defined outcomes versus defining how the work is completed.

What Will You Do?

  • Write epics that define business outcomes rather than system changes, focusing on the flexibility the platform must support instead of the specific rules it encodes.
  • Design for configurability by avoiding early commitments to specific rates, states or market rules.
  • Apply vertical slicing to deliver the thinnest end-to-end path through the user journey first, then expand scope incrementally.
  • Maintain rigorous traceability, ensuring every story aligns to a portfolio epic and a measurable success indicator.
  • Exercise sound judgment on ownership boundaries, distinguishing between what Auto systems build and what they integrate with, to keep scope accurate and transparent.
  • Translate technical concepts, including data contract standards and entitlement models, into plain language that enables nontechnical business partners to make informed decisions.
  • Take an iterative, feedback-driven approach, treating early epics as working hypotheses to refine with engineering and product partners rather than fixed commitments.
  • Define, prioritize and ensure a ready backlog of work for a smaller scale product team, accept final product output, focusing on achievement of defined outcomes versus defining how the work is completed.
  • Effectively manage a backlog of deliverables and capabilities as well as 'test and learn'/experimentation targeted at defining/refining future deliverables, measuring performance and adjusting the overall roadmap of deliverables as needed.
  • Understand and implement team goals and strategy, ensuring alignment with circle and value stream vision; Articulate team goals and strategy effectively to key stakeholders, Circle Leads and team members.
  • Act as voice of the end-user; have a deep understanding of and respond to customer feedback ensuring needs and requirements are clearly defined; ensure team work product meets defined acceptance criteria.
  • Own team backlog, including prioritization and refinement; Make trade-off decisions to maximize value.
  • Optimize the flow of value by setting objectives and key performance indicators (KPIs) for solutions.
  • Inform and participate in business readiness; understand the impact of change, implement the approach to manage adoption and mitigate resistance.
  • Provide feedback on work-in-progress, clarify requirements and contribute to removing roadblocks or impediments; Look for opportunities for continuous team and process improvement.
  • Partner with Circle Leads and peers to effectively communicate resources required to achieve defined business outcomes.
  • Share best practices across teams to ensure alignment and consistency in ways of working within a value stream.
  • Foster an innovative, inclusive and diverse team environment, promoting positive team culture, encouraging collaboration and self-organization.
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

What Will Our Ideal Candidate Have?

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
