Product Owner

What You'll Be Doing

• Strategic Backlog & Scope Ownership: Serve as the definitive voice of innovation, user needs, and business value. Fully own the team backlog—defining epics, features, and user stories—and proactively handle complex dependencies and time-critical priorities to maximise the ROI of our R&D efforts.
• Roadmap, Vision & R&D Strategy: Actively contribute to and shape the strategic roadmap and vision for our new solutions portfolio. Research emerging tech trends, track competitors, and perform deep analysis to proactively propose new product concepts and technical improvements.
• Stakeholder Management & Ambiguity: Champion your product as its primary global ambassador. Lead high-level technical and business discussions, align cross-functional engineering teams, and successfully navigate highly ambiguous, experimental environments to keep innovation tracks moving forward.
• Quality & Experimental Excellence: Collaborate with Development Leads, Solution Architects, and QA to build robust prototypes and proof-of-concepts. Ensure a balance between rapid experimentation and foundational engineering quality so that successful solutions can scale efficiently.
• Operational Readiness & Transition: Define success metrics and monitor experimental data to guide pivot-or-persevere business decisions. Ensure that training, documentation, and foundational testing are executed flawlessly ahead of transitioning new solutions into mainstream business units.

What We're Looking For

• 2–3+ years of experience as a Product Manager or Product Owner, demonstrating growing autonomy in managing product lifecycles, ideation phases, and leading short-range roadmap definition.
• Advanced stakeholder management skills with a proven ability to align diverse cross-functional engineering teams, research leads, and high-profile external clients.
• Strong technical grounding with concrete experience managing technically complex products, data solutions, or R&D initiatives (e.g., AI, machine learning, computer vision).
• Strategic product execution experience, particularly in defining Minimum Viable Products (MVPs), proof-of-concepts, and setting clear OKRs in fluid environments.
• Superb leadership and communication skills with a knack for removing product-related obstacles, conducting trade-off analyses, and keeping priorities visible.

Bonus Points For

• Experience working on high-performance products within a business-to-business (B2B) setting.
• Experience in an R&D, lab, or startup environment bringing zero-to-one products to life.
• Enthusiasm for occasional international travel to collaborate directly with sports federations, teams, and tech partners trackside to test new solutions.
