Descrizione del lavoro

This role is offered on an Italian employment contract. Candidates must be based in Italy as we are unable to support remote working from outside the country due to local employment and tax legislation.

AXIS is Deltatre's user experience management platform — used by BritBox, Sportsnet+, DYN, Bell Media, beIN, and other OTT operators to control native app experiences across iOS, Apple TV, Android, and the long list of streaming devices. The AXIS Apps product line focuses on the native applications that deliver AXIS-powered experiences to millions of consumers across mobile, connected TV, and beyond.

As Product Owner — AXIS Apps, you will own the roadmap development for the AXIS content streaming Apps product. You will own and deliver the product backlog, engage with design and development teams day-to-day, and contribute to longer-arc strategic roadmap initiatives that fuel product growth across multiple device types and client deployments.

Responsibilities

Roadmap and strategy

• Ideate and contribute to the strategic product roadmap for AXIS — identifying new features and initiatives that evolve the product and continue to meet and exceed customer expectations
• Act as the voice of the customer — gather and analyse customer feedback, market insights, and usage data to inform roadmap decisions for the AXIS Apps
• Manage and respond to customer feedback and improvement requests; embed continuous improvement into the roadmap
• Own end-to-end requirement gathering and writing — translate business needs, customer feedback, and strategic goals into clear epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria
• Manage and curate the product backlog, ensuring items are well-prioritised based on value generation, ROI, and alignment with broader product strategy and client delivery needs
• Provide sufficient analysis, context, and clear business value to enable developers to estimate, refine, and contribute to technical backlog items
• Engage with development teams day-to-day — leading backlog grooming, sprint planning, stand‑ups, reviews, and retrospectives
• Act as the primary point of contact for the scrum team
• Collaborate with Product Design and Product Engineering to plan, shape, and deliver upcoming development increments
• Work with Senior Product Management, Technology, and other stakeholders to set sprint and quarterly goals that align with product strategy

Customer issues and product evolution

• Take ownership of resolving customer issues, balancing short-term fixes with long-term product evolution
• Keep current with Agile / Scrum best practices, product management methodologies, and emerging trends in the streaming space

Requirements

You combine product judgement with the discipline to run a backlog day-to-day. You can hold a strategic conversation about market positioning in the morning and run a sprint planning session with engineers in the afternoon, and you treat both as serious work. You are customer‑centric in practice — you understand what video viewers actually do, not only what the data dashboard shows.

Required

• 5+ years' experience as a Product Owner or in a similar product role
• Demonstrated experience managing and delivering products across multiple product development squads simultaneously
• Demonstrated planning and management of product delivery — mitigating risks, escalating blockers and impediments
• Experience working in a deadline‑driven delivery environment, ideally in a B2B2C or B2C context
• Demonstrated business acumen — able to connect product decisions to commercial outcomes
• Solid technical understanding to engage credibly with engineering teams
• Deep knowledge of Agile process and principles with demonstrable experience owning a product backlog
• Hands‑on experience leading team ceremonies (backlog grooming, sprint planning, retrospectives)
• Customer‑centric in practice — gathering feedback, running discovery sessions, translating insights into actionable product improvements
• Clear communication and presentation, with the ability to influence stakeholders at multiple levels of the business
• Analytical mindset, comfortable working with data to inform decisions
• Experience working on streaming, OTT, or set‑top box products
• Knowledge of video players and video player technology
• Familiarity with AXIS or comparable UX management platforms
• Genuine interest in sport or entertainment content — useful for editorial judgement on what matters to the audiences our customers serve

Process and what to expect

Salary starts from €27.000 at entry level rising to €82.000 for those with significant relevant experience. Where you land depends on the experience and expertise you bring.

If your expectations sit outside the range, tell us anyway —we're happy to have an open conversation. Internal progression is assessed through a structured process combining a technical assessment and a competency‑based interview. The role falls under CCNL Commercio| D.Lgs. 96/2026.

Who Thrives Here

Product Ownership for AXIS Apps runs at the intersection of consumer experience and platform pragmatism. The apps you shape are used at scale by major OTT operators — BritBox, Sportsnet+, DYN, Bell Media, beIN — and the decisions you make echo across that surface. The work rewards Product Owners who care about the small details (the moment a connected-TV navigation feels off, the feature request that is actually three different requests in disguise) and who can hold the longer-arc view of how the product evolves over quarters, not sprints.

A good Product Owner at Deltatre tends to be honest with engineering about trade‑offs (they do not sell features as easy that are not), generous with credit (they do not take it from the people doing the work), and curious about the user's actual viewing experience — not only the survey response.

Assessment Stages

• Introductory conversation: a step for us to get to know each other better, and for us to answer all questions you might have around Deltatre.
• 1-hour Technical round of Interview: we will deep dive on your experience and collect examples of the responsibilities you've been dealing with in your past experience. A chance to deep dive on the role and for you to ask questions.
• 1-hour Competency Based Interview: we will ask you situational questions around how you deal with real-life scenarios at work. Easier doing it, more than explaining it.

If any of these formats would be difficult for you, tell us — we adjust regularly and can usually accommodate.

Accessibility and accommodation questions are welcome at any stage. Tell us what would work for you.
