The Position: Liberty Mutual Investments (LMI) is seeking a
Product Owner II to support its Accounting Product, with responsibility for investment accounting and regulatory and financial reporting capabilities across multiple reporting frameworks, including statutory (National Association of Insurance Commissioners, NAIC), GAAP, and TAX. The role will focus on enhancing and maintaining accounting and reporting capabilities within LMI's investment accounting platform, SimCorp Dimension, and its related data and reporting processes, with an emphasis on the end-to-end processes and upstream data that produce reported figures, including quarterly and annual statutory investment schedules. This position reports to the Accounting Portfolio Product Owner within Financial Products and Global Investment Solutions (GIS).
Operating at the intersection of Investment Accounting, Finance, Technology, Data, Investment Product, and the platform vendor, the Product Owner will translate business, accounting, and regulatory requirements into actionable product priorities and drive the delivery of technology solutions that enable accurate, timely, and reliable financial and regulatory reporting. The role will own the Accounting Product backlog and proactively partner with Agile delivery teams, other Product Owners, and SimCorp Dimension's Regulatory Center of Excellence (REGCOE) to deliver solutions aligned with business priorities and regulatory commitments.
This role requires strong business acumen, technical fluency, sound judgment, and a proactive approach: anticipating regulatory and accounting changes, setting and communicating timelines, and aligning dependencies early.

- Translate business, accounting, and regulatory requirements into actionable user stories with clear acceptance criteria.
- Proactively collaborate with other Product Owners, SimCorp Dimension's REGCOE, and technology and data teams to anticipate dependencies, remove impediments before they affect delivery, and drive outcomes.
- Set clear deadlines and handoff dates for each deliverable and maintain visibility of partner teams' commitments and deadlines so that dependencies, sequencing, and critical-path risks are managed in advance.
- Lead Agile delivery activities, including backlog refinement, sprint planning, demonstrations, and coordination of development, testing, business validation, and production implementation.
- Evaluate business value, feasibility, and regulatory risk to make informed prioritization decisions and ensure timely delivery of high-quality solutions.
Regulatory & Accounting Change Management- Proactively monitor regulatory, statutory accounting, and reporting framework changes (e.g., NAIC updates), as well as SimCorp REGCOE releases and roadmap items, and assess their impact on systems, data flows, and downstream processes ahead of effective dates.
- Translate upcoming changes into backlog items with defined timelines, owners, and testing and validation plans, and communicate impacts, priorities, and risks to stakeholders and senior leadership early.
- Assess the impact of new investment types and reporting requirements across statutory, GAAP, and TAX bases, including basis differences (such as the statutory-to-GAAP "stat gap") and their effect on reporting content and downstream processes.
- Apply working knowledge of investment accounting, investment operations, and the upstream data that feeds reporting (trade capture and settlement, security master and reference data, pricing and valuation sources, custodian and counterparty data, and corporate actions) to evaluate how upstream changes affect reporting accuracy and timing.
Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement- Internal (LMI): Partner with Investment Reporting, Operations, Investment Product, Data Product, Technology and other Financial Product teams to deliver accurate, complete, and timely financial and regulatory reporting.
- Liberty Mutual Group (LMG): Coordinate with LMG Corporate Accounting, Finance, TAX, and other group functions that depend on LMI's accounting and reporting outputs, aligning on requirements, calendars, and priorities.
- Vendors: Work with SimCorp, implementation partners, and other platform and data vendors to manage releases, defects, enhancements, and delivery commitments.
- Regulators and external parties: Support engagement with regulators, auditors, and advisors as needed, and ensure reporting changes and regulatory requirements are understood and addressed ahead of deadlines.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for Accounting Product stakeholders, building strong relationships, facilitating decisions, and communicating priorities, progress, and risks to stakeholders and senior leadership.
- Proactively identify and resolve reporting issues, data quality concerns, and cross-team dependencies, escalating risks as appropriate to protect critical reporting timelines.
Data Quality, Risk & Continuous Improvement- Work closely with Data Product and Investment Product, alongside Accounting, Finance, and Technology stakeholders, to define data requirements, ownership, and quality standards for the data that feeds accounting and reporting.
- Strengthen data integrity, reporting accuracy, and regulatory compliance through effective data validation, reconciliation, and operational controls, identifying and addressing data quality gaps at the source.
- Drive process improvements and leverage automation, including AI-enabled capabilities, to reduce manual effort, improve reporting efficiency, and mitigate operational risk.
- Balance delivery of new capabilities with platform stability, ongoing production support, and evolving regulatory and data governance requirements.
- Define and monitor product-level KPIs to measure reporting timeliness, data quality, operational efficiency, and delivery outcomes.
Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, Technology, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
- 5+ years of experience in business, technology, financial services, or consulting, including 3+ years working with Agile teams in a Product Owner, Business Analyst, or similar role.
- Working knowledge of investment accounting and financial and regulatory reporting frameworks, including statutory accounting principles (SAP) and NAIC investment reporting, GAAP, and TAX, including basis differences between them.
