Department OverviewThe Product team is a cross‑functional group responsible for defining the strategy, roadmap, and experience across the Resilience Platform and its solution suite, including Recover (Business Continuity), Collaborate (Crisis & Emergency Management), Resolve (Security Operations), Alert (Mass Notification), Engage (mobile app for community and employee safety), and the core low‑code/no‑code platform.
The Configuration team brings these product visions to life by building modular, scalable configuration packages that can be deployed across customers and industries. This role leads that team and ensures we deliver solutions that are powerful, consistent, and integrated.
Job Description
The Senior Product Owner – Configuration leads the end‑to‑end definition, delivery, governance, and continuous improvement of solution configurations on the Resilience Platform. This role acts as the primary bridge between Product Managers (horizontal and vertical), Engineering, Professional Services, and our distributed Configuration Analyst team.
You will manage and mentor the configuration team, prioritise and allocate work, maintain alignment with product roadmaps, and ensure that configurations are high‑quality, repeatable, versioned, and scalable. A key responsibility is to establish and execute the long‑term configuration management strategy — evolving our configuration library into a cohesive, modular, low‑maintenance asset that supports growth across customer segments with minimal customisation.
This role is both operational (managing daily workflow, quality, and delivery) and strategic (shaping the future of our configuration architecture and lifecycle).
Success in this role requires strong leadership, systems thinking, stakeholder management, and deep experience with configuration‑driven/low‑code platforms.
