Product Operations System Wide Planning - Vice President

Join the Product, Experience and Technology (PXT) Finance & Business Management on a transformative journey as we enhance our operating model to drive productivity and innovation.

We started by adopting Scrum to boost team-level efficiency and introduced a Product Operating Model to improve collaboration and alignment across teams.

As we continue to evolve, we've organized our products into Portfolios, optimizing resource management and priority setting.

Our current focus is on accelerating the delivery of our most significant priorities, which span multiple portfolios and involve a variety of autonomous products.

With 22 strategic initiatives identified, we're set to propel our business into a successful future, and we aim to expedite the execution of these and other major projects.

As a System Wide Planning Vice President in the Product Experience and Technology team, you will play a pivotal role in transforming high-level investment prioritization decisions into actionable guidelines for independent product teams.

Your responsibilities will include facilitating improved and synchronized decision-making processes concerning the scheduling and allocation of capacity for discovery and delivery tasks.

Although we do not enforce strict rankings for product capacity allocation, your role will involve enhancing transparency into the status and readiness of work.

This will empower product teams to make informed decisions based on multiple priority sources, such as strategic priorities of the Product, Experience and Technology team, line of business priorities, and mandatory firmwide engineering work.
