Product Lead - Integrations and Orchestrations

What you'll be doing:

• Own and prioritise the Integration & Orchestration platform backlog, ensuring alignment to enterprise technology strategy and Production Operations priorities.
• Own and evolve the Integration & Orchestration platform roadmap, balancing platform sustainability, engineering considerations, business priorities, and long-term capability needs.
• Act as the primary bridge between business stakeholders, Product, Architecture, Engineering, Operations, and Service teams.
• Translate agreed business and technical requirements into epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, dependencies, non-functional requirements and delivery priorities that enable effective engineering delivery.
• Produce high-quality, engineering-ready requirements that are clear, testable, prioritised, technically feasible and traceable to business outcomes.
• Own and prioritise delivery of API-first, event-driven, asynchronous, and system-to-system integrations across SaaS and bespoke platforms.
• Facilitate workshops and working sessions to clarify requirements, resolve ambiguity, identify dependencies, and align implementation approaches across teams.
• Communicate priorities, progress, risks, dependencies, and decisions clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
• Partner with Engineering and Architecture to ensure secure, scalable, reusable, and reliable platform outcomes.
• Ensure integration and orchestration capabilities are implemented consistently, reliably, and in alignment with agreed business and product requirements.
• Ensure acceptance criteria define success, failure, and edge-case scenarios clearly enough to support estimation, development, QA validation, and release readiness.
• Act as the primary owner for the Atlas platform backlog, ensuring integration and orchestration capability is prioritised, implemented, and evolved in line with strategic platform objectives.

What you'll need:

• Experience as a Product Owner, Technical Product Manager, Technical Analyst, Platform Owner, or Integration Lead in a complex enterprise environment.
• Strong understanding of API design, API-led integration, system-to-system integration, workflow orchestration, event-driven patterns, domain-driven design, and data exchange.
• Experience managing a technical backlog in an agile delivery environment, including user stories, acceptance criteria, prioritisation, and refinement.
• Proven experience writing clear, testable user stories and acceptance criteria that engineering and QA teams can use directly for estimation, development, validation, and release readiness.
• Strong understanding of non-functional requirements for enterprise platforms, including security, performance, resilience, observability, scalability, data quality, error handling, and operational support.
• Ability to work effectively with engineers, QAs, architects, product teams, operations, and senior business stakeholders.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain complex integration concepts in clear business language.
• Confident facilitating discussion, managing expectations, resolving ambiguity, and influencing priorities across multiple teams.
(Desirable Experience)
• Experience in media, content production, marketing, or workflow-driven environments.
• Exposure to iPaaS, API management, orchestration, or enterprise integration platforms.
• Familiarity with enterprise SaaS ecosystems across workflow, finance, resource, asset lifecycle, or approval systems.
