Description du poste

Overview

The Product Owner is the single point of accountability for maximizing the value delivered by the Scrum team. This role serves as the voice of the customer and business within the team, translating product strategy and stakeholder needs into a clearly prioritized backlog. At AssistRx, the Product Owner works closely with client-facing teams, pharma customers, and engineering to ensure each sprint delivers measurable value toward the specialty pharmacy platform. The Product Owner is distinct from the Product Manager: the PM owns the strategic 'why' and the roadmap; the PO owns the sprint-level 'what' and ensures the team always has clear, ready-to-execute work. These roles are not interchangeable and are not combined at AssistRx's current scale.
