Working within an Agile delivery framework, you'll act as the bridge between Product and Engineering, partnering closely with Product Managers, Developers, QA, UX, and subject matter experts to translate business requirements into clear, actionable user stories that enable engineering teams to deliver high-quality solutions. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys understanding complex problems, thinking critically about requirements, and working collaboratively to deliver value through well-defined product increments. In this role you will: - Collaborate with Product Managers, Business Analysts, Developers, QA, UX Designers, Scientists, and other stakeholders to understand business objectives and product requirements. - Gather, analyse, challenge, and document business and user requirements, ensuring they are clear, complete, and ready for development. - Translate Epics into detailed user stories, acceptance criteria, process flows, and supporting analysis documentation within Jira and Confluence. - Refine and maintain the product backlog, working closely with Product Managers to prioritise work and prepare stories for delivery. - Analyse business processes and user workflows to identify opportunities for product improvements. - Participate in Agile ceremonies including backlog refinement, sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives. - Collaborate closely with Engineering and QA throughout delivery, ensuring requirements are understood and questions are resolved promptly. - Work across multiple Agile teams to ensure consistency of requirements and successful delivery. - Help identify and mitigate delivery risks, managing stakeholder expectations throughout the development lifecycle. - Perform and support User Acceptance Testing (UAT), ensuring delivered functionality meets business needs. - Use product analytics and customer feedback to help identify future product improvements. - Contribute to wireframes, user flows, and lightweight prototypes where appropriate to communicate product requirements more effectively. - Support wider product initiatives through customer discussions, technology research, and cross-functional collaboration where required.
