3Pillar is an AI transformation partner on a mission to help enterprises build the AI-native products and intelligent agents that will define the next era of business. With teams across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia, we work with the most ambitious companies in financial services, healthcare, media, and technology — helping them move faster, modernize boldly, and compete on their own terms. Our HelixAI platform and Helix Pods delivery model put our engineers at the center of real agentic transformation — doing work that is open, portable, and built to last. We are building the future of enterprise AI.

• Own the backlog and story quality for a complex engagement — often spanning multiple engineering tracks or workstreams

• Translate product strategy and roadmap from a 3Pillar PM or client PM into epics, stories, and acceptance criteria with a high degree of independence

• Navigate ambiguity confidently: identify gaps in requirements, drive the right conversations to resolve them, and make well-reasoned decisions when direction is incomplete

• Lead and facilitate backlog refinement sessions; ensure the team is never blocked waiting on story clarity

• Actively participate in all Agile ceremonies as a senior, prepared contributor — and help shape ceremony effectiveness

• Mentor and guide POs on the engagement; review their stories, raise the quality bar, and invest in their development

• Partner with UX to ensure research findings and design decisions are translated faithfully and completely into the backlog

• Communicate backlog health, scope risks, and delivery signals clearly to the PM and Delivery Lead

• Champion AI-forward backlog practices — model effective use of AI in story writing, acceptance criteria, and requirements analysis; help the team adopt these habits

• Contribute product context in client-facing sessions when needed — credible and clear on scope, requirements, and trade-offs

Experience & Background

• 7+ years of experience as a Product Owner or Business Analyst on software delivery teams — intentionally senior-weighted relative to industry norms, reflecting the autonomy and complexity we expect at this level

• 4+ years in a consulting, professional services, or agency environment

• Proven track record of owning complex backlogs across multi-team or multi-track engagements

• Experienced working from both internal PM direction and direct client PM/PO direction

• Strong Agile/Scrum practitioner; understands how backlog quality drives delivery outcomes

Collaboration & Communication Skills

• Highly autonomous — identifies and resolves requirements gaps without waiting to be directed

• Skilled at working alongside client PMs and POs: can take direction, push back constructively when needed, and build productive working relationships

• Credible in client-facing product conversations: clear on scope, requirements, and trade-offs

• Strong written communication; produces documentation that engineering, QA, and stakeholders can rely on

• Effective across globally distributed, cross-cultural teams

AI Fluency (Required)

• Uses AI tools as a standard, established part of the PO workflow — not as an experiment

• Coaches and models AI-forward backlog and documentation practices for the broader team

• Uses AI to accelerate requirements analysis, edge case identification, acceptance criteria drafting, and sprint prep

• Evaluates AI outputs critically and helps others do the same

AI in Products (Preferred)

• Has written stories for products with AI/ML features — understands the backlog and acceptance criteria challenges that non-deterministic features introduce

• Familiar with how AI product capabilities (recommendations, NLP, generative features) affect requirements definition and testing strategy
