About this role
Company Description
Publicis Sapient is a digital transformation partner helping established organizations get to their future, digitally enabled state, both in the way they work and the way they serve their customers. We help unlock value through a start-up mindset and modern methods, fusing strategy, consulting, and customer experience with agile engineering and problem-solving creativity.

Overview
We are seeking a Senior Product Manager with strong, hands-on Product Owner skills and Shopify experience to lead the delivery and evolution of customer-facing eCommerce experiences. This role combines discovery, feature definition, prioritization, and roadmap execution with direct ownership of the product backlog and feature delivery. Working closely with Engineering, Experience, QA, and business stakeholders, this individual will translate business and customer needs into clear, executable requirements and own features from concept through production release.
The ideal candidate brings strong digital commerce and Shopify experience and is comfortable operating within a complex enterprise ecosystem where commerce capabilities span multiple platforms and integrations. They connect customer needs and business objectives to prioritized delivery work and remain hands-on in backlog management, solutioning, user stories, acceptance criteria, sprint execution, and release readiness. They actively resolve ambiguity and dependencies and drive delivery forward rather than ending their involvement at requirements handoff.

·Identify and actively manage dependencies across commerce capabilities and integrated enterprise systems.
·Support the definition and delivery of end-to-end customer journeys across areas such as product discovery, cart and checkout, customer account, payments, order management, subscriptions, and post-purchase experiences.
·Ensure delivered functionality remains aligned with business objectives, customer experience expectations, and agreed product requirements.
·Facilitate alignment across business, Product, Design, and Technology stakeholders when requirements, priorities, or dependencies need clarification.
·Support release planning and readiness, including validating that acceptance criteria and business requirements have been appropriately addressed.

·Strong working knowledge of Agile product delivery practices, including Scrum and/or Kanban.
·Ability to understand integrations and dependencies between Shopify and supporting enterprise systems without needing to serve as the technical architect.
·Strong communication skills, with the ability to clearly articulate requirements, decisions, dependencies, and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
·Comfortable operating within a large, matrixed organization with multiple stakeholders and competing priorities.
