Description
This is an exciting opportunity within Salesforce's Digital Enterprise Technology (DET) team to drive a product portfolio that empowers our global Customer Success organization. As a Product Owner, you will bridge the gap between strategy and execution, designing applications that help our Customer Success Managers thrive. You will oversee a cutting-edge internal ecosystem, including our own Service Cloud instance, AI Automation with Prompt Builder, Agentic AI use cases, and custom Force.com applications. We are looking for a storyteller and agile expert who can balance scope, budget, and timelines while maintaining exceptional stakeholder alignment and a passionate pursuit of performance.
Responsibilities
In this role, you will be part of a high-performing team that thinks big and moves fast. Your core mission includes:

- User Advocacy: Represent the "Voice of the User" by conducting deep-dive research, interviews, and shadowing to understand pain points. Define problems with empathy to ensure we build the right solutions, not just requested features.
- Backlog Management: Break down complex epics into granular user stories with clear acceptance criteria, working closely with architects and engineers to ensure technical feasibility.
- Stakeholder Alignment: Build "business intimacy" with stakeholders. Demonstrate new features to leadership and incorporate feedback into future development cycles.
- Team Shielding: Act as the primary point of contact for the delivery team, shielding engineers from distractions while fostering a collaborative, transparent environment.
- Strategic Optimization: Consult with engineering teams to propose scalable solutions that address a wide range of business needs across the Salesforce platform.
