Job Description

Roles & Responsibilities

As a Product Owner, you'll sit at the center of product delivery. You'll be responsible for turning customer problems, product strategy, and business priorities into clear, actionable work that engineering and design teams can execute with confidence. Your impact won't be measured by how many Jira tickets you create. It will be measured by how effectively you help the team build the right things, reduce delivery friction, avoid costly rework, and deliver meaningful value to customers faster. You'll work closely with Product Managers, Designers, Engineers, QA, and customer-facing teams to ensure everyone understands the problem we're solving, why it matters, and what success looks like. If you enjoy bringing structure to ambiguity, asking great questions, and helping teams move faster without sacrificing quality, you'll thrive here. What You'll Do Create clarity where others see complexity You'll take customer feedback, business requests, product strategy, and technical requirements and transform them into clear user stories, acceptance criteria, workflows, and requirements that teams can confidently build from. Own squad readiness You'll make sure backlog items are ready before they enter development. Engineers shouldn't be discovering major requirements halfway through a sprint. You'll ensure the team has the context, detail, and alignment needed to deliver predictably. Help the team build the right things You'll partner closely with Product Managers to break large initiatives into smaller, valuable releases that allow us to learn quickly and deliver customer value faster. Drive productive collaboration You'll act as the bridge between product, design, engineering, QA, and customer-facing teams, ensuring everyone is aligned on priorities, scope, dependencies, and expected outcomes. Challenge unclear thinking When requirements are vague, assumptions are risky, or priorities don't make sense, you'll ask the hard questions. Respectfully, but confidently. Reduce delivery friction You'll identify risks, dependencies, and gaps before they become problems. Your goal is to help the team spend less time clarifying work and more time delivering value. Protect quality and customer experience You'll think beyond the happy path by considering edge cases, permissions, error handling, workflows, and usability before features reach customers. Support successful launches You'll help ensure internal teams understand what is being released, how it works, and what customers should expect through clear release notes, documentation, and enablement materials. What Success Looks Like Within your first few months: Backlog items enter development with significantly fewer unanswered questions. Sprint planning becomes more predictable because work is properly prepared and understood.
