- Writing clear user stories and epics that outline requirements for system enhancements, upgrades, and new integrations.
• Stakeholder Communication:
- Act as a primary liaison between business stakeholders, the ERP development team, and enterprise architecture.
• Technical Oversight:
- Work closely with ART and SCRUM Team technologists to make informed decisions on technology choices, system design, and security best practices.
• Roadmap and Releases:
- Manage and communicate the ERP infrastructure roadmap, coordinate system upgrades and releases, and ensure new features are deployed with minimal disruption.
• Performance and Scalability:
- Monitor and analyze system performance to proactively identify and address potential bottlenecks and capacity issues.
• Risk Management:
- Identify and mitigate technical risks, security vulnerabilities, and compliance issues related to the ERP system and its integrations.

• ERP Expertise:
- Proven experience as a Product Owner, Architect, or similar role with a focus on large-scale ERP systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, etc).

• Agile Methodology:
- Deep knowledge of Agile principles and experience managing product backlogs within a Scrum or Kanban framework.
- Strong AGILE Product Owner background
• Communication Skills:
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills with the ability to "translate" complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
- Proven ability to negotiate and set direction in stressful situations
• Problem-Solving:
