Key Responsibilities

Product Ownership & Execution

  • Clearly communicate what is being built, why, and when
  • Support pre-sales and demo readiness by ensuring consistent functionality and data
  • Periodically deliver product demos and technical walkthroughs to prospects and partners
  • Support Sales by explaining product capabilities, use cases, and value propositions

Product Quality & Outcomes

  • Define success criteria for features
  • Ensure features align with security, compliance, and least-privileged access principles
  • Review beta deployments to validate that delivered functionality meets expectations
  • Continuously refine features based on feedback and real-world usage

What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months)

  • Engineering consistently has a clear, prioritized backlog
  • Fewer requirement-driven reworks and mid-sprint changes
  • Improved alignment between customer needs and delivered features
  • More confident demos and sales conversations
  • Tangible improvements in customer outcomes (e.g. Better governance posture)

Qualifications

Required:
  • 5+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Business Analyst, or similar role
  • Experience working with Agile / Scrum teams
  • Strong ability to write clear requirements and acceptance criteria
  • Comfortable working closely with developers and technical stakeholders
  • Experience in SaaS or enterprise software environments
  • Excellent communication and prioritization skills
  • Familiarity with Microsoft 365, Entra ID (Azure AD), Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, or Power Platform
Preferred:
  • Experience with monitoring, security, governance, or analytics products
  • Understanding of enterprise IT environments and admin workflows
  • Experience in a small company or startup environment
  • Exposure to tools like Azure DevOps, Aha, Confluence, or similar

The salary range for this role is $140,000 - $150,000. ENow offers a competitive total rewards package which includes base salary and a comprehensive benefits & perks package.
