Alyssa Bongalos
@alyssabongalos
Product Owner and business-focused analyst driving digital transformation in financial systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a personable Product Owner with over three years of experience connecting business needs to technical solutions, primarily in financial services. I excel at requirements gathering, process optimization, and producing clear documentation that guides development and adoption.
At Philippine Savings Bank I led the Centralized Subsidiary Ledger and Reconciliation System (CSL) as Product Owner, delivering nine sprint increments, integrating CSL with three banking systems, and managing projects from roadmap to release using Agile and Scrum practices.
My background includes hands-on experience with SQL, APIs, integrations, UAT facilitation, backlog prioritization, and stakeholder communication, and I have supported change management and post-implementation reviews to improve user productivity and efficiency.
I bring a finance foundation from audit and OTC roles, practical tools experience (Trello, Notion, Slack, Google Workspace), and a Lean Six Sigma White Belt—seeking to apply my analytical and communication strengths to further optimize business processes and drive value through technology.
