Technical Product Owner

Insight Global’s client is looking for a Technical Product Owner to join their team to help own their application called Lighthouse which is a Supply Chain Control Tower.

• Lighthouse is a dedicated supply chain control tower built for the North American market, designed to identify, manage, and mitigate active disruptions within the supply chain network. * The tool has been developed over the last five years as a white material product and is deeply integrated into daily supply chain business routines. * Historically, the product was managed by the digital team with a heavy emphasis on business-side requirements. * A newly established structure has been put in place to balance decision authority between business stakeholders and technical execution teams. * Under this model, the business side owns the “why” and “what” of product features, acting as a co-pilot with complete technical visibility. * The technology team sits in the “driving seat” regarding the “how” of technical execution, integration, and architecture. This structural change has received positive feedback and buy-in across stakeholders.
