Req ID: 47882Job Family: Information Technology/Software DevelopmentSabre is the global leader in innovative technology that leads the travel industry. We are always looking for bright and driven people who have a penchant for technology and want to hone their skills. If you are interested in challenging work, being part of a global team, and solving complex problems through technology, business intelligence and analytics, and Agile practices - then Sabre is right for you! It is our people who develop and deliver powerful solutions that meet the current and future needs for our airline, hotel, and travel agency customers.Job Description The Product Owner is a member of the Agile Team responsible for defining stories and prioritizing the team backlog to streamline the execution of the roadmap priorities. The PO has a significant role in quality control and is the only team member empowered to accept stories as done. Part of the product owner responsibilities is to have a vision of what he or she wishes to build and convey that vision to the scrum team.Product owners bridge the communication between the team and their stakeholders. In practice there proves to be two critical aspects to this role: first as a stakeholder proxy within the development team and second as a project team representative to the overall stakeholder community.Product owners are empowered. The product owner is the single person whom is responsible for prioritizing requirements and for providing the details explaining the requirements to the team.Product owners facilitate communication. Product owners need good communication skills, including agile modeling skills. They also need to know who the stakeholders are, interact with them regularly, and when needed facilitate the interaction which the team has with them. Although it's convenient for delivery teams to think of product owners as the "one neck to wring" because it puts the burden of requirements responsibility on them, the reality is that the product owner can't possibly know all the details known by the true range of stakeholders at all points in time and as a result will need to bring stakeholder experts to the team to share their expertise with the team at appropriate times. The implication is that the product owner isn't always the direct source of requirements.Product owners prefer direct means of communication. There is significant evidence that the worst way to communicate information between people is via documentation, and that the most effective way is face-to-face around a shared sketching environment.Product owners need many business analysis skills. They need to be skilled in techniques to identify stakeholder needs, negotiate priorities between repeating stakeholder factions, and then collaborate with developers to ensure that the requirements are implemented effectivelyJob Requirements
