Product Owner – Food Processing Software & Machinery

bTrace Tomorrow GmbH + Co. KG is the digitalization unit within food processing machine manufacturer BAADER. The focus is on an interdisciplinary team of digitization experts who are committed to using digital possibilities and a global network of partners to improve the entire food value chain for all stakeholders involved – for an innovative, transparent and safe food supply.

We believe that with digitalization, BAADER will make the food value chain more sustainable and more efficient, will improve animal welfare and at the same time will enhance the profitability of our customers. Our focus is on producing only what is necessary, reducing unnecessary waste or downgrading and maximizing the value of by- and co-products. By aligning our vision, strategy and products consistently with customer needs, we ensure high customer satisfaction and drive meaningful progress in the industry. The key factor to reach these goals is excellence of the team, technology and agile processes. We are striving for a flat hierarchy with self-organized teams in an agile organization with a high degree of autonomy.

We are now seeking a Product Owner with expertise in solutions in food processing factories and machinery.

Your future tasks will include:

• Take responsibility for defining and delivering innovative digital solutions that optimize food production processes, enhance equipment efficiency and ensure compliance with industry standards, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, including software developers, electronic engineers, customers and stakeholders, to drive product success and market adoption.
• Define and communicate the product vision, roadmap and backlog for the BAADER Poultry and BAADER Digitalization software.
• Gather and prioritize business and technical requirements from stakeholders, including product management, poultry processors, machine operators and engineers.
• Ensure compliance with food safety regulations (e.g., FDA, EU standards) and industry best practices.
• Work closely with software development teams to ensure features are designed, developed and deployed effectively and collaborate with hardware engineers to integrate software with factory machinery and production lines.
• Conduct market research – together with product management – to understand industry trends and identify opportunities for innovation, define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) for product success.
• Act as the main point of contact for a customer, converting feedback into customer needs and product features that translate into actionable improvements.

Qualifications, experiences and personal skills you possess:

• Successfully completed university degree in computer science, engineering, food technology or a comparable qualification.
• Relevant work experience as a Product Owner or Product Manager in industrial automation, food processing or manufacturing software.
• Experience working in agile development environments (Kanban, Scrum, Lean or others) and leading cross-functional teams toward clear goals and high performance.
• Familiarity with (cloud-based) industrial software and Industry 4.0 technologies; familiarity with IoT solutions, SCADA, MES or ERP systems in food manufacturing advantageous.
• Experience with predictive maintenance or real-time monitoring solutions for industrial equipment beneficial.
• Analytical competence to drive data-informed decisions.
• Good stakeholder management skills and the willingness to align diverse teams toward a shared vision along with good communication skills in English, both spoken and written.

We offer:

• Internationality.
• An interesting and varied job.
• Hybrid working with the possibility to flexibly choose the office location Hamburg and/or Lübeck.
• Company health promotion.
• Global Assistance Program for health and safety risks during business trips abroad.
• Further qualification and education offers.
