Our client is an established international industrial group investing in digital transformation and the development of modern customer-facing applications and shared digital services.
🚀 About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Technical Product Owner responsible for coordinating the development and delivery of customer-facing digital platforms and shared cloud-based services.
The role acts as the key link between Product Management, business stakeholders, IT Architects, and internal or external development teams.
The Product Owner takes responsibility for the entire delivery process, from backlog refinement and user stories through sprint execution, testing, acceptance, and production readiness.
This is not a Cloud Engineering or infrastructure ownership role. The focus is on software delivery, backlog ownership, translating business requirements into actionable development tasks, and ensuring high-quality digital solutions.
The Product Manager defines the product strategy and business priorities, while the Product Owner manages the detailed backlog, delivery scope, and execution.
- Own, refine, and prioritize the product backlog for customer-facing digital platforms and central services.
- Translate business requirements into clear user stories, technical specifications, and acceptance criteria.
- Coordinate internal and external software development teams, including sprint planning and backlog refinement.
- Manage delivery priorities, dependencies, and day-to-day scope decisions within agreed business objectives.
- Act as the main point of contact between Product Management, Business Analysts, IT Architects, and development teams.
- Validate and accept completed user stories, ensuring alignment with functional requirements and quality standards.
- Coordinate testing, release readiness, and the successful delivery of new functionalities into production.
- Support the development of shared digital services, including customer registration, authentication, notifications, consent management, and API-based integrations.
- Ensure delivered solutions comply with established architecture, security, and data protection standards.
- Identify delivery risks, resolve operational dependencies, and escalate strategic or budget-related decisions to the Product Manager.
- Drive continuous improvements based on user feedback, incidents, and service performance.
- Experience as a Technical Product Owner, Digital Product Owner, Software Product Owner, or in a similar software delivery role.
- Proven experience managing product backlogs, user stories, acceptance criteria, and Agile development processes.
- Experience working directly with software development teams delivering web applications, customer portals, SaaS products, or digital services.
- Good understanding of APIs, enterprise integrations, and cloud-based application architecture.
- Ability to translate business requirements into clear, actionable development tasks.
- Experience coordinating software delivery across business, architecture, and engineering teams.
- Strong understanding of Agile/Scrum methodologies and software development lifecycle.
- Experience in testing, functional acceptance, and production release coordination.
- Strong stakeholder management, communication, and prioritization skills.
- Professional English proficiency.
⭐ Nice to Have
- Experience with Microsoft Azure-based applications and services.
- Experience with customer portals, customer registration, and identity management (SSO/IAM).
- Knowledge of API Management, authentication, and integration patterns.
- Familiarity with GDPR, consent management, and data security requirements.
- Exposure to IoT platforms or connected products.
🎁 What's on Offer
- Remote working model with limited office presence.
- Long-term cooperation within an international organization.
- Opportunity to contribute to the development of customer-facing digital platforms and shared services.
