Slalom Flex (Project Based) - Product Owner/Manager - AI

Our Delivery teams help organizations of all kinds redefine what's possible, give shape to the future-and get there. We focus on high-impact projects, meeting our clients where they are to uncover business needs and deliver results. Our teams go beyond the expected to help clients move confidently through ambiguity and risk and drive more transformative outcomes.

What You'll Do

• Evaluate business problems to clearly define objectives, success measures, potential solutions, and expected benefits
• Translate business needs into well-defined product concepts, features, and releases, with a strong focus on AI, machine learning, and data visualization for business improvement
• Break down complex solutions into prioritized features and capabilities that align to business value and delivery readiness
• Own product and POD-level roadmaps, balancing execution needs with long-term product and portfolio strategy
• Prioritize solutions and features within releases, making clear trade-offs across scope, timing, and value
• Group and frame related solutions into transformational business concepts rather than isolated point solutions
• Partner closely with developers, data scientists, and engineers to ask informed questions, challenge assumptions, and validate solution approaches
• Translate technical constraints, dependencies, and risks into clear, business-understandable impacts and options
• Lead and influence cross-functional teams without direct authority, driving alignment and accountability toward shared outcomes
