Infor

Infor is looking for a talented Senior Product Owner, to join our Infor SunSystems product team as we build momentum for our recently released Multi-Tenant cloud solution. SunSystems is a well-established financial management solution that attracts customers in multiple verticals around the globe. The solution is combined with real-time analytics and is tightly integrated into Infor’s Technology platform.

We are currently commencing a significant programme to rework the architecture of SunSystems for the future. As part of this work, we will be structuring our product development into tribes, each dedicated to a major area of the product. We are seeking strong product owners, who will own and drive one development tribe, giving the right candidate the opportunity to put their stamp on the product, build velocity and drive customer value in their area of the product. This is a great opportunity to get in at the beginning of this work and establish yourself as a key player as we build on SunSystems 40-year history and design the SunSystems of the future.
Our three tribes will focus on:
1. Business / Financial Logic (rebuilding core logic in a microservices API-driven platform)
2. Core product services (e.g. reporting, e-mailing, customisation)
3. Product Experience / UX (modernise front-end and user experience)
