• Partner with Product Owners and engineering teams to guide delivery across sprint cycles, release planning, and UAT
• Drive launch readiness including change management, training, and adoption support for Supply Chain end users
• Monitor post-launch performance, gather feedback, and iterate continuously to improve capability effectiveness
• Identify integration requirements across platforms (ServiceNow ↔ Oracle, contract systems, etc.) and partner with architects and engineers to define the right solutions

Platform & Domain Strategy

• Build a cohesive platform strategy for Supply Chain that spans multiple systems - ensuring capabilities work together rather than in silos
• Identify opportunities to standardize, consolidate, or automate workflows across procurement, sourcing, and vendor operations
• Stay current on Supply Chain technology trends, platform capabilities (ServiceNow SPM/Procurement, Oracle SCM), and contract lifecycle management best practices
• Represent Supply Chain product needs in cross-functional planning forums and enterprise architecture discussions

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor's degree and 6 years' experience in a related field. The right candidate could also have a different combination, such as a master's degree and 4 years' experience; a Ph.D. and 1 year of experience; or 18 years' experience in a related field
• 5+ years of product management experience in enterprise software, internal platforms, or business operations technology
• Demonstrated ability to manage products that span multiple platforms or systems of record
• Strong discovery and facilitation skills - comfortable leading structured conversations with business stakeholders to uncover needs and define requirements
• Experience working with or adjacent to Supply Chain, Procurement, Vendor Management, or Contract Lifecycle Management domains
• Ability to translate complex operational workflows into clear, actionable product requirements
• Proven success influencing without authority across technical teams, platform owners, and business stakeholders
• Familiarity with Agile delivery methods and experience writing epics, features, and user stories

Preferred

• Hands-on experience with supply chain / procurement platforms (ie. Oracle, ServiceNow or related modules)
• Experience with contract management platforms (Icertis, Coupa, Ariba, or similar)
• Background in enterprise service management, shared services, or internal platform strategy
• Exposure to data integration, workflow automation, or system-of-record design across multi-vendor environments
• Experience building relationships with a net-new stakeholder group - establishing trust, credibility, and momentum from the ground up
