Job description

Own a component area (eg, segmentation, NAC, DDI, egress, SIEM detections, runbook automation) within the pod. Refine epics into stories with clear acceptance tests; manage dependencies and keep delivery flow unblocked.

Responsibilities:

? Story elaboration: translate risk/controls and design artefacts into user stories; define DoR/DoD; orchestrate UAT.

? Dependency management: maintain cross-tower dependency map (networks, identity, endpoint, SOC, service management) and negotiate sequencing.

? Change enablement: co-create standard change models and evidence packs with Tech Leads; ensure PIR actions feed the backlog.

? Reporting: visualise progress and value (burn-up, control coverage) and maintain a tight feedback loop with the Key Product Owner.

Requirements

? 5+ years as PO/BA in network/security domains; excellent story writing and backlog hygiene.

? Comfortable with config/policy artefacts (Firewall baselines, ISE/NAC policy, DDI plans, Proxy/ZTNA, SIEM rules).

? ITIL change fluency; ServiceNow request/change models.

Preferred Certifications:

? PSPO/CSPO; ITIL 4 Foundation; vendor fundamentals in one or more stacks (Cisco/Zscaler/Fortinet/Splunk/Infoblox/Forescout).

KPIs:

? Backlog health (aging, WIP, throughput); % first-time pass against DoD; change lead-time and change-related incidents.
