[Hiring] Product Owner @World Wide Technology

Role Description

WWT (World Wide Technology) is looking for an Agile Product Owner to lead the Opportunity-to-Quote (O2Q) process for our software recurring revenue business. The Product Owner is a connector, orchestrator, and navigator between the IT (Information Technology) Organization and the Business, ensuring that the systems and processes supporting opportunity capture, configuration, pricing, and quoting for subscription and consumption-based software offers meet the needs of our business partners.

The Product Owner turns vision into reality and, with the solution architect, helps guide the delivery team in building and enhancing the CRM/CPQ (Configure-Price-Quote) capabilities that move a deal from opportunity to a signed, quote-ready order.

An ideal candidate must have previous experience owning one or more products within the Opportunity-to-Quote space and have a solid understanding of product management techniques, CPQ (Configure-Price-Quote) tooling, and a background in recurring revenue offers and/or billing systems.

The role demands a combination of technical understanding, business acumen, and effective communication skills to successfully guide the development team in delivering a product that meets both customer needs and organizational goals.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree or 5+ years of relevant experience.
• 2-5 years of experience working as a Product Owner or Product Manager.
• 2-5 years designing and implementing CRM/CPQ or opportunity-to-quote solutions in a SaaS environment, or experience in revenue or sales operations.
• 2-5 years of relevant experience in recurring revenue product offerings and/or opportunity-to-quote (CPQ) tools that support recurring revenue.
• 2-5 years of experience working directly with Sales, Deal Desk, and other business stakeholders.
• Experience with Agile Methodologies required.
• Effective verbal and written communication for both a technical and non-technical audience.

Requirements

• Experience with subscription management offerings and associated billing models.
• Experience in recurring revenue models and billing methodologies (XaaS, Consumption, usage models) as they flow from opportunity through quoting.
• Experience with CPQ (Configure-Price-Quote) tools and opportunity-to-quote business processes (e.g., Salesforce CPQ, Oracle CPQ, Conga/Apttus) for subscription or SaaS (Software as a Service) based lines of business.
• Working knowledge of CRM/ERP tools supporting the broader quote-to-invoice lifecycle (Oracle NetSuite, RecVue, Salesforce Billing & Revenue Management, Coupa, etc.), even though this role's primary focus is upstream of invoicing.
• Experience designing & implementing integrations between upstream CRM/opportunity systems and CPQ/quoting platforms, and downstream invoicing/AP/AR/general ledger applications.
• Experience in system implementation/solutions, crafting policies for software subscription pricing, discounting, and quote approval workflows.
• Experience as a Business Analyst.
