Job Description

WHAT WE DO

Founded in 2007, Growth Acceleration Partners (GAP) is a consulting and technology services company. We consult, design, build and modernize revenue-generating software and data engineering solutions for clients. With modernization services and AI tools, we help businesses achieve a competitive advantage through technology. GAP’s remote, integrated engineering teams use end-to-end solutions to innovate and align with your business goals. We have 600+ English-speaking engineers based in Latin America and approximately 20 U.S.-based engineers. With some of the highest customer satisfaction scores in the industry, GAP’s focus is customer and employee success.

GAP is a woman-owned company headquartered in Austin Texas. We are a values-based company focused on growing our people by investing in education, onsite English classes and training in the latest technologies, including AI, data analytics and machine learning. Our goal is to provide solutions for our customers that help them achieve critical business outcomes, while enabling our GAPSters and our communities to attain long-term success.

About GAPVelocity AI: GAPVelocity AI is the AI-first modernization business unit of Growth Acceleration Partners (GAP), a leading consulting and technology services provider specializing in custom software, data engineering, and modernization solutions. Our unique Hybrid AI architecture rapidly transforms legacy applications, making us the go-to partner for enterprises aiming to modernize and leverage AI for competitive advantage. The enterprise AI modernization market is experiencing explosive growth with companies seeking to transform legacy systems. Our proprietary Hybrid AI architecture solves what others can't - enabling rapid, risk-free application migration that competitors can't touch.

We're on a mission to scale the Business Unit to $50 million in annual revenue, and we're searching for builders ready to make an immediate and lasting impact.

About the Role: As the Product Owner for GAPVelocity AI, you'll be a critical player in turning our AI modernization vision into shippable product capabilities. This role owns the product backlog, translates customer and market needs into clear user stories, and partners tightly with Engineering to deliver the VELO roadmap.

You'll excel by bridging legacy modernization complexity, agentic AI workflows, enterprise software requirements, and practical delivery. This is not a VP strategy role. It is a hands-on product ownership role for someone who can turn ambiguity into prioritized work the team can actually build.

Key Responsibilities:

• Own and prioritize the product backlog. Translate roadmap priorities into clear epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, release goals, and sprint-ready work for the engineering team.

• Bridge customer pain and product execution. Capture input from customers, prospects, Sales, Solution Architects, Delivery, Marketing, and leadership, then turn the signal into product requirements that are clear, testable, and tied to business value.

• Drive VELO platform delivery. Partner with Engineering to deliver capabilities across AI-assisted modernization workflows, including assessment, analysis, transformation, validation, reporting, and user experience.

• Support enterprise readiness. Prioritize product requirements for security, SSO, auditability, compliance, scalability, reliability, and other enterprise-grade expectations.

• Make AI outputs verifiable. Work with technical leaders to define product requirements that reduce risk in AI-generated code, including deterministic guardrails, validation workflows, human-in-the-loop review, traceability, and measurable quality signals.

• Balance self-service and high-touch enterprise needs. Help shape product experiences that can support lower-touch adoption while still meeting the realities of complex enterprise modernization programs.

• Partner on go-to-market readiness. Support demos, launch planning, product messaging, enablement materials, roadmap conversations, and feedback loops that help Sales and Marketing sell the platform credibly.

• Measure product outcomes. Define and track adoption, usage, release, quality, and modernization outcome metrics that show whether VELO is creating measurable customer and business value.

You'll be supported by:

• Engineering leaders, AI engineers, and modernization experts who understand the technical depth behind VELO

• Solution Architects and Delivery teams with direct customer and project experience

• Sales and Marketing teams who can provide buyer feedback, objections, and market signals

• Product leadership and executive sponsorship for roadmap alignment and prioritization

• Modern AI tools and collaboration workflows to help move fast without turning the backlog into a junk drawer

What We're Looking For:

• 5+ years of experience as a Product Owner, Product Manager, Technical Product Manager, Business Analyst, or similar role in B2B SaaS, enterprise software, developer tools, cloud, AI, or technology services.

• Hands-on experience managing a product backlog, writing user stories and acceptance criteria, supporting sprint planning, and making tough priority calls.

• Ability to translate technical concepts into clear product requirements and explain product value to non-technical stakeholders.

• Familiarity with enterprise software expectations such as SSO, security, compliance, auditability, reliability, scalability, and procurement realities.

• Strong interest in AI product workflows, especially agentic AI, deterministic vs. generative AI trade-offs, validation, traceability, and trustworthy automation.

• Understanding of application modernization concepts - for example, legacy systems, source-to-target migration, .NET, Blazor, Azure, PowerBuilder, VB6, Access, WebForms, or WinForms.

• Excellent communication skills and the judgment to separate real customer signal from one-off requests disguised as strategy. It happens. A lot.

• Collaborative mindset with the ability to work across Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Delivery, and executive stakeholders.

• Entrepreneurial drive, accountability, and adaptability in a rapidly evolving environment.

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

Why GAPVelocity AI?

• Join an innovative team leading the charge in AI-driven application migration and modernization.

• Own meaningful product work at the intersection of legacy systems, cloud-native architectures, and agentic AI.

• Help turn hard-won modernization expertise into scalable product capabilities customers can trust.

• Work in a collaborative, forward-thinking culture where product decisions are tied to real customer outcomes.
