Team Context
At Aflac Northern Ireland we’re all about customer care and the customer experience. We are looking for talented, dynamic, inquisitive and skilled individuals to help us grow our expertise in end to end cloud enabled data driven solutions as part of Aflac’s global Cloud Data Transformation programme. We are looking to recruit a Product Owner to drive through change and spearhead Aflac’s journey from on-premise to the Cloud.
The Cloud Data & engineering Product Owner will be integral to our Belfast based Cloud Solutions Engineering teams and will be responsible for the definition of products and services underpinned by AWS solutions. The PO will support the Cloud Solutions Engineering team and be responsible for delivering on the iterative design, build and maintenance of the data platform. Promoting the usage of this platform to support innovative solutions that help to deliver broader insights across the company backed with detailed analytics and metrics. Improving not only product offerings but customer care. These cloud-based solutions will cover the full lifecycle from data discovery, metrics creation and analysis, quality, data stewardship, ingest, enrichment and exposure to multiple data consumers all underpinned by detailed product and platform analytics.
The intention is for our teams to continually adapt and reinvent their skills and capabilities over time as technologies change and evolve. We provide the right challenges and opportunities to enable your success, you to bring your enthusiasm, the ability to learn quickly, and to take minimum-viable-product technology to produce industrialised solutions. Once you have successfully delivered robust and scalable cloud solutions for Aflac, there will be a new technology waiting to be explored and built to scale within our organisation. We’ll be keeping things pretty fresh.
