📦 Product Owner

LH-07251

You'll join the Clean Energy Regulator as one of two Product Owners working at EL1 level within the agency's Change Program, taking accountability for maximising the value of your product and delivering agency outcomes. The CER treats each scheme's end-to-end value stream as a product, and you'll advocate for prioritisation of the backlog in line with business and technology strategy while enabling your Scrum team to deliver customer centric solutions. You'll work alongside the Product Management team, business area subject matter experts, design and architecture, and your fellow scrum team members. Day to day that means connecting with the customer to understand and articulate needs and constraints, shaping whole-product solutions that balance desirability, viability and feasibility, managing and prioritising the team backlog, and engaging stakeholders for continuous feedback across Agile Release Train objectives. You'll take a lead role in PI Planning and the CER's agile ceremonies, and be transparent in identifying and escalating issues, dependencies, risks and opportunities for re-use across the program.
