  • Managing the product backlog and ensuring delivery. You help to conceive the feature, write the requirements, manage the build and implementation, and measure the impact. 
  • Building a water-tight process for getting things done and delivering on our goals; if there’s something we should be doing then make it happen.
  • Always being up to date on the latest technologies, our tech stack and changes in our industry. You want to be on the cutting edge.

 

What a day in the office might look like

You start your day with a stand-up and help identify and remove any roadblocks the squad is facing. Before lunch you review performance data with an analyst and identify areas for possible improvement. You work with the marketeers to understand the problem and define a possible solution, converting this solution to a requirement and breaking it into simple, deliverable tasks to form a backlog. After lunch you lead a planning session with the squad and set the priorities for the next sprint. Before heading home you grab a beer (or other tasty beverage) and review the roadmap with the rest of the product team and the CEO to look for challenges ahead, validate ideas and spot opportunities.

The squad
You will be working daily with a team of amazing developers (Elod, Ale, Oss and Samuel) as part of a cross-functional squad, including a QA engineer, marketeers and data analysts.
