      Product owner intern

      Managed the development of a web-based product by working with a global vendor team using the Agile Scrum Methodology. I gathered business requirements and successfully groomed a product backlog using Team Foundation Server. The product had an 8 sprint roadmap, however, my techniques and good communication reduced product delivery by 1 sprint (two weeks).Key Activities:• Held strategy meetings to further develop the product roadmap and compose user stories • Held sprint review meetings with the global vendor development team every two weeks via Skype• Led bi-monthly demonstrations of new product features to other teams and business stakeholders• Collaborated with global marketing and UX teams to ensure the product met required standards• Conducted tests of new product features to ensure they match the description of the user storiesA second project included the relaunching of a website using WordPress. The website served to display the department's current and on-going projects' information such as their status, roadmaps, and financial information. For this, I managed a 2nd product backlog and closely worked with stakeholders and marketing to gather requirements and implement the appropriate changes. Show less
