Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Product Owner

Job Description

Job Description

Reingold distinguishes itself from other consulting firms by two things : our serious thirst for impact and our not-so-serious culture. Yes, we are expert technologists, marketers, and designers, joined in a focused pursuit of the best strategies for our clients. But we are also regular people who care about the human side of showing up for work each day. In other words, jokes and jeans both make daily appearances here, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Reingold’s mission is to help other mission-driven organizations, whether in the government, nonprofit, or business sector. Our approach requires leveraging the latest communications and digital media techniques to help our clients meet their audiences where they are – often on that little place called the internet. That’s where you come in.

We are seeking an experienced AEM Product Owner to lead the vision, strategy, and delivery of our Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) platform for our client. The person in this role is responsible for developing and owning a product roadmap that aligns with organizational goals, addressing user needs, and driving continuous growth and optimization.
