Product Owner, Core Payments Api

Danske Bank’s Core Payments Platform-tribe is seeking a new Product Owner to lead the enhancement and modernisation of our Core Payments APIs. These APIs are widely used across business units and play an instrumental role for some of the key processes and operations in our organisation – including financial crime prevention and our customer-facing channels – so you will navigate an array of different stakeholders with diverse needs.

As Product Owner for the Core Payments API-squad in the Payments Data Cluster you will lead a team based in Denmark and India and you will plan and prioritise the deliveries, ensuring contributions to the strategy and vision of the tribe/domain – in close collaboration with other Product Owners in the Payments Data Cluster and the tribe in general.

Solid communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with a strong sense of ownership for your deliveries and for implementing changes.

Your primary responsibilities will be:

• Take part in defining the target state for the Payments Data Cluster.
• Develop a roadmap for the coming years that bridges the current situation and short-term commitments with the ambitions of the tribe’s data strategy.
• Manage the implementation of the roadmap by ensuring transparency and alignment with stakeholders
• Maintain an overview of the progress on the roadmap, prioritise requirements and set the direction of the squad’s current and future assets.
• Set sprint goals, plan sprint content, and manage the squad’s backlog.
• Build domain knowledge and ensure effective knowledge-sharing with stakeholders – both inside and outside the tribe.
