## Description

The Product Owner is responsible for managing the product backlog for a dedicated development team and driving features from initial definition through development, release, and client launch. In this role, you will partner closely with engineering, QA, operations, implementation, and client-facing teams to prioritize work, define requirements, and ensure successful product delivery. You will help determine development priorities, remove roadblocks, keep the team focused, and support the delivery of high-quality releases on a consistent and predictable cadence., * Backlog Ownership: Own and prioritize the CareTria product backlog; write clear user stories with acceptance criteria that are ready for the team to estimate and commit to.

 * Development Team Execution: Serve as the day-to-day product point of contact for the development team; lead backlog refinement, sprint planning, standups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives, and accept or reject completed work against acceptance criteria.
 * Release & Launch Management: Drive features through UAT, release, and production support; define release scope and readiness criteria, run go/no-go decisions, and own release notes and internal enablement so operations and client teams are ready before launch.
 * UAT & Quality: Coordinate user acceptance testing with internal operations and client stakeholders, including test planning, defect triage, and sign-off.
 * Requirements & Client Partnership: Gather and validate requirements with operations, account management, implementation, and client stakeholders; represent CareTria capabilities in requirements workshops, configuration reviews, and demos.
 * Prioritization & Trade-offs: Balance client-specific commitments against platform scalability, advocating for configurable solutions over one-off builds, and communicate scope decisions and their rationale clearly.
 * Stakeholder Communication: Maintain a current roadmap and delivery view; report status, risks, and timeline changes to leadership and client teams on a regular cadence, surfacing issues early rather than escalating late.
 * Compliance Awareness: Partner with Quality/Regulatory, Compliance, and Information Security so that requirements and delivered functionality reflect applicable regulatory, privacy, and security obligations.
