WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Here's what you can expect on a typical day:

• You will bring clarity of vision and forward-thinking product ideas to get our engineering teams excited.

• You'll start each day with a scrum, working in a team of 3-5 developers, a program manager, and yourself. Your primary focus is to understand developer issues and turn those issues into a set of requirements. You will have an active part in shaping the product. Our agile team uses Jira for agile tracking and ceremonies and works in two-week sprint cycles.

• Problem Solving. Your problem-solving skills are essential in this role. You will identify problems, find and present solution sets, and then translate solutions into requirements for the engineering team to execute. Your ability to design roadmaps and create requirement documents in Powerpoint/Google Slides are crucial to your team's success.

• As a technical leader, you are very organized, and you keep everyone on task. Is a meeting going off-topic? You'll pull the team back to the agenda. Scope creeping? You'll stay on top of the schedule, remove barriers, identify dependencies, and mitigate risks.

• You'll create strong alliances with diverse stakeholders and ensure everyone is in this together and communicates most appropriately. You'll collaborate with other product managers since much of what we solve cuts across functions within the platform. You understand the overall priority of work and how to achieve goals to make everyone successful.

• Inevitable challenges will arise, and we'll rely on you to look for a solution. You love a challenge and revel in the opportunity of finding one.

• You must know how to communicate with engineers and other technologists giving them confidence you understand their challenges. Our Solutions Architects can translate easily between technical and non-technical teams, so both parties are clearly understood. As an example, you'll be responsible for translating user-specific issues for the development team.

• You have 12+ years of experience in relevant skills gained and developed in the same or similar role.

TO SUCCEED IN THIS ROLE:

• You'll have a Bachelor's degree OR equivalent.

• Prior hands-on Engineering experience includes:

• Proficiency in Java/JEE technologies, jQuery, JSON, Angular, Mulesoft, Kafka

• Hands-on experience with Springboot and Spring integrations

• RDBMS and NoSQL databases such as Mongo or DynamoDB

• GIT, Jenkins, Ansible, Public Cloud (AWS or Azure)

• 3-5 years of Technical Project Management or Software Engineering Management experience (preferred)

YOU'LL LOVE WORKING HERE BECAUSE YOU CAN:

• Deliver at epic scale. We deliver real user outcomes using strong judgment and good instincts. We're obsessed with the art of achieving simplicity with a focus on client happiness and productivity.

• Be surrounded by curious learners. We align ourselves with other smart people in an environment where we grow and elevate one another to the next level. We encourage our associates to listen, stay agile, and learn from mistakes.

• Act like an owner & doer. Mission-driven and committed to leading change, you will be encouraged to take on any challenge and solve complex problems. No tasks are beneath or too great for us. We are hands-on and willing to master our craft.'

• Give back to others. Always do the right thing for our clients and our community and humbly give back to the community where we live and work. Support our associates in times of need through ADP's Philanthropic Foundation.

• Join a company committed to equality and equity. Our goal is to impact lasting change through our actions.
