Sponsorship not available. Position only available to those with legal authorization to work in the United States.

Switchboard is seeking a Product Owner on behalf of our client, Open Technology Solutions. As the CRM Product Owner, you will define business requirements, lead vendor selection, and oversee the migration from OTS’ current CRM platform to a new, consortium‑wide solution that aligns with a multi‑year strategy.
