About this role:
Wells Fargo is seeking a customer-centric Lead Product Owner to support the build of our next-generation Supply Chain Finance (SCF) platform. Partnering closely with Product, Technology, Risk, Operations, and Business stakeholders, you will translate strategy into clear, actionable backlog items and lead agile delivery squads to ship high-quality capabilities that elevate client experience and business results.
This role sits within the Commercial Bank's Supply Chain Finance business and is integral to delivering the SCF platform's end-to-end outcomes.
In this role, you will:
Own the Backlog & Outcomes
Translate product strategy into a prioritized backlog with well-formed epics/features/user stories; continuously refine scope and acceptance criteria to drive measurable customer and business value.
Establish and track product goals and KPIs/OKRs, ensuring delivery stays aligned to vision, regulatory expectations, and risk controls.
Drive Customer-Centered Delivery
Facilitate frequent collaboration with clients, stakeholders, and scrum teams; synthesize feedback into backlog updates and release plans
Partner with our Client Advisory Board program to ingest insights and close the "feedback-to-action" loop within sprints and quarterly planning.
Enable High-Velocity, High-Quality Execution
Lead sprint ceremonies (planning, refinement, reviews) with Technology to ensure clarity, flow, and quality; review and accept completed work against defined DoD/DoR.
Coordinate dependencies across squads and product areas to deliver cohesive, omni-channel experiences on a modern SCF platform.
Anchor on Risk, Compliance & Governance
Embed policy, SDLC, and control requirements into stories and release processes; maintain transparent documentation and auditability.
Elevate Team Craft & Continuous Improvement
Champion agile and product best practices; coach partners on discovery, experimentation, and data-informed decisions that improve speed and outcomes.
As the ideal candidate, you are:
A Builder with Bias for Action: You thrive in complex environments, turning ambiguity into clarity and momentum through crisp backlog management and decisive prioritization.
A Customer-Obsessed Problem Solver: You translate qualitative and quantitative insights into simple, valuable solutions-and keep client experience at the center.
A Cross-Functional Connector: You collaborate seamlessly with Technology, Risk, Operations, and Business partners to ship secure, scalable capabilities on a modern platform.
Required Qualifications:
5+ years of Product Management, product development, strategic planning, process management, change delivery experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education
Hands-on experience writing user stories, defining acceptance criteria, leading testing/feature acceptance, and managing a backlog for agile delivery teams
Desired Qualifications:
Experience in Financial Services/Commercial Banking/Supply Chain Finance or other B2B platforms.
Proven collaboration across multiple scrum teams, delivery leads, and cross-functional stakeholders (engineering, XD, data).
Familiarity with SDLC/policy requirements and embedding risk, compliance, and controls into product delivery.
Strength in customer discovery, insight synthesis, and metrics-driven prioritization (OKRs/KPIs).
