Job Description

The Role

AsProductOwner,you'llbe thebridgebetween strategy/planningand execution: translating business goals into clear priorities, keeping the team focused and unblocked, andrepresentingthe team to stakeholders across theorganisation.You'llwork closely with developers, architects, project managers, and both internal and external stakeholders to ensure the teamdelivers withclarity, focus, and momentum.
You'lloperatewithout formal people management responsibility, butyou'llbe expected to lead — through trust, communication, and the ability to bring people together around shared goals.We'relooking for someone with strong people skills who can inspire, create engagement, handle different personalities, and navigate complex situations with composure.
This role is genuinely hybrid in nature: part product ownership, part hands-on contributor. We want someone whodoesn'tjust oversee delivery from the sidelines — but who can roll up their sleeves and get involved in the actual work when it matters.
WhatYou’llDo
Own the backlog— define,prioritise, andmaintainuser stories and requirements so the team always knows what to build and why, continuously aligned with business value, project planning, and team capacity
Bridge business and technology— work with international stakeholders, PMO functions, and other technical teams to gather and break down requirements, align expectations/plans, and communicate progress, risks, and trade-offs
Create transparency— help stakeholders understand how scope, priorities, and technical realities impact delivery; act as a key point of contact for communication, alignment, and delivery-related discussions
Drive Agile delivery— actively manage sprint planning, backlog refinement, stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives; keep ceremonies lean and purposeful
Remove blockers— clarify requirements, define acceptance criteria, and ensure that completed work meets expected quality standards
Shape product direction— contribute to roadmap and strategy discussions, helping balance short-term delivery needs with long-term product direction
Contribute to day-to-day delivery— activelyparticipatein the team's sprint work by picking up development or testing tickets;it'san expected and valued part of the role when capacity allows.We use amicroservicesarchitecture primarily developed in Java.
WhatWe’reLooking For
3–5+ years as a Product Owner, Tech Lead, or similar role in an Agile/Scrum environment
Strong understanding of Agile methodologies and product development processes
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — comfortable in both technical and business conversations
Strong leadership, collaboration, and people-oriented skills
Proven ability to translate ambiguous business needs into clear, actionable requirements
Good technical understanding and experience working closely with development teamsand technical requirements and documentation.
Fluency in English
Strong advantage: hands-on experience inJavasoftware development or QA/testing — ideally to the level where you can actively contribute to sprint work, not just oversee it
Who You Are
You are structured, pragmatic, and delivery-focused, with a natural ability to create clarity in complex environments. You make decisions confidently, balance priorities, and challenge assumptions constructively — while still being collaborative and approachable. Complex environmentsdon'toverwhelm you; you thrive in them.
You enjoy working closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, andyou'reenergisedby environments where teamwork, ownership, and continuous improvement are valued.
You'realso someone who gets satisfaction from shipping things — not justorganisingthework, butbeing part of delivering it. Whether that means writing a test, picking up a bug fix, or helping the team push a feature over the line, you see hands-on contribution as a natural extension ofgood productownership, not a distraction from it.
Above all, youlead naturally — not through hierarchy, but through communication, engagement, trust, and the ability to bring people together around shared goals.
