PLEASE NOTE: At this time, we are placing a preference on candidates located in the United States and Canada.


Bitovi is looking for a Technical Product Owner to join us as we transform technology delivery. If you have ideas on how to make technology delivery more collaborative, validation-driven, and swift, we want to work with you


WHO YOU ARE

You’re experienced working on technology delivery teams and interfacing with stakeholders. You thrive on using process and structure to fight through chaos and disorganization. You have the expertise to help define, prioritize, and execute a technical roadmap that enables teams to deliver a quality software product to end-users.

You’ll excel in this role with Bitovi if you have:

  • 5+ years related technology experience, 3+ years of technology project/program management experience
  • BA/BS degree or related experience
  • A proven skillset in leading or guiding software projects at a multi-team scale with executive-level stakeholders
  • Experience creating, communicating, and managing detailed program or project plans that span across multiple stakeholders and partners
  • Experience reviewing processes and identifying pain points to deliver operational efficiencies
  • Experience engaging in product discovery, planning, and driving technical product value
  • The ability to break down mockups and wireframes into actionable stories
  • The ability to lead estimation processes with teams while managing dependencies, resource capacity, and schedule
  • Interest and experience working with clients directly and joining new projects
  • Excellent oral and written communication, along with strong interpersonal skills, negotiation experience, decision-making, analysis, and problem-solving skills
  • Experience with matrix working relationships and best practices of Agile methodologies like Scrum, Kanban, and XP
  • Experience and/or certification as an Agile product owner and scrum master
  • Consulting experience is great to have



WHO WE ARE

Bitovi works with companies that want a true partner in building outcome-focused apps. Our collaborative approach is driven by validation to deliver the swiftest route to the most valuable solution. We’re driven by the desire to provide value to our clients, the technology community, and our incredible team.


Every day, we design and build a wide variety of high-profile applications with tests, full docs, and a deployment process in place. We discuss and design architectures, review code, and research new front-end technologies. We talk to our clients directly, guiding them through the process, identifying potential problems and unknowns, and tackling challenges.


We help one another freely. We keep a Slack channel called ask-help, which is constantly used. We develop new skills, build better developer tools, and work on new types of projects regularly—and we take the time to present at conferences, give training, and run meetups. We’re huge devotees of open source, and our developer community is second to none.


Our fully remote team comprises about 70 developers and designers in the US and Canada. We welcome diversity and non-traditional paths into professions - we want the right person, not the right collection of tech keywords.

WHAT YOU’LL DO AT BITOVI

Consult and Manage. You’ll consult and meet with clients regularly to learn about their needs and update them on the progress of their projects. You’ll provide product process leadership and work collaboratively with the technical delivery team. The bulk of your day will be spent on the following:

  • Actively participate in roadmap planning and help align product initiatives with business objectives and strategies
  • Implementing Bitovi’s approach to Agile program management to produce accurate, actionable plans at scale. You can read more about our methodology on the Agile Program Management training page in the Bitovi Academy.
  • Deliver business and technical expertise to the feature teams for the purpose of completing the design, coding, testing, and implementation phases of the project life cycle
  • Develop technical requirements from business requirements and prioritize them. Break requirements down to workable sizes and user stories
  • Managing and appropriately escalating risks, issues, and changes
  • Managing and refining the product backlog, assembling sprints, and performing release planning
  • Participating in the release process as the product expert to surface any issues prior to the release
  • Ensuring that roadmaps and the product backlog are visible, transparent, and clear to brand partners


Travel. Travel averages 3-5 days every quarter, and we’ll always be working with your schedule.


Teach. With Bitovi’s full support, you’ll have protected time to present at conferences, give training, plan and run meetups or local groups, and create various kinds of content in your area of expertise.



WHAT WE OFFER

First and foremost, you’ll be part of a thoughtful, talented, and amazing team that supports and challenges one another to do their most exceptional work. You’ll contribute to and lead a diverse array of projects, expand your skills and stature in the tech community, and build a track record you’re passionate about and proud of.


You’ll also enjoy excellent benefits, including:

  • Competitive salary and annual bonus opportunity
  • Completely remote work with flexible hours
  • 401(k) matching
  • 4 weeks of paid vacation in addition to 7 paid holidays
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance offerings
  • Paid maternity and paternity leave
  • STD, LTD, and Life Insurance coverage
