- Define and manage deliverables: configuration workbooks, traceability (requirements test cases), conversion rules, acceptance criteria, and runbooks
- Drive externalization of product and pricing rules from the core (e.g., product catalog/pricing engine patterns), including governance, versioning, and change control
- Ensure configurability and reusability for small business product variants and pricing scenarios
- Systematically rebuild SME knowledge: establish playbooks, configuration catalogs, decision logs, and knowledge repositories
- Embed controls for data quality, auditability, and compliance (model of record, change logs, approvals)
- Coordinate with Risk/Compliance, InfoSec, and Audit on policy alignment and control evidence
- Lead UAT, operational readiness, and post-conversion stabilization; track SLAs, defects, and business adoption metrics
- Manage dependencies across vendors, platform teams, and downstream systems (statements, fees, pricing, online banking)
Requirements:
- 7+ years of Business Execution, Implementation, or Strategic Planning experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work or consulting experience, training, military experience, education
- 8-12+ years in Product Management or equivalent (BSC/BA lead) within financial services, including core banking initiatives
- Demonstrated experience with mainframe-based core systems, ideally Hogan (FIS), including configuration analysis and change management
- Proven delivery across core modernization, data conversion/migration, and process engineering
- Strong command of requirements analysis, user stories & acceptance criteria, process flows, and traceability
- Experience leading cross-functional teams and aligning business, tech, and risk stakeholders
- Deep understanding of small business banking products, processes, and nuances (pricing/fees, product constructs, operational impacts)
Desired skills:
- Prior experience at a large U.S. bank that uses/used Hogan, particularly in Small Business
- Hands-on work externalizing product and pricing rules (e.g., product catalog, pricing engine, rules governance)
- Familiarity with API-first modernization, eventing/data streaming, and config-driven architectures
- Background in conversion cutovers, parallel runs, and post-conversion stabilization for core systems
- Comfort with knowledge management frameworks to rebuild SME artifacts rapidly
