- Act as a primary point of contact for the development team, clarifying any questions or issues regarding user stories
- Ensure delivered features meet business goals and stakeholder expectations by participating in regular sprint reviews, stakeholder meetings and retrospectives
- Collaborate with stakeholders (Product and non-tech stakeholders) to ensure successful execution of key initiatives
- Assist in exploratory data analysis, gathering customer and stakeholder insights to guide product enhancements
- Track, document and report on product performance, sharing regular updates with internal teams and stakeholders

**What you will bring**:

- 3-5 years of experience in a product owner or similar role in an agile software development environment
- Strong understanding of agile methodologies and hands-on experience with managing product backlogs and user stories
- Demonstrated experience working closely with engineering teams to deliver high-quality software products
- Experience with working with diverse stakeholders, ensuring solutions are built to solve real-world problems
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a proven ability to clearly articulate complex ideas
- Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams to achieve business goals
- Strong analytical skills with experience in exploratory data analysis using tools such as SQL or Big Query
- Bachelor's degree in a relevant technical field (e.g., Computer Science, Engineering) or equivalent work experience
- Demonstrated passion for digital products, user experience, and agile development practices
- Experience working in fast-paced environments, ideally within a high-growth tech startup or global internet company
- Proven track record of delivering product features on time and with measurable business impact

**To help us level up you will have**:

- Strong sense of ownership and accountability over product delivery
- Highly organised with exceptional attention to detail
- Ability to work effectively under pressure and within tight timelines
- Collaborative and open-minded, with a positive approach to change and process improvement
