We believe in fostering a collaborative and inclusive environment where everyone's ideas are valued. By joining our team, you will have the opportunity to work with passionate individuals who are committed to continuous improvement and innovation.

Together, we will lead the product development process from concept to delivery, ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and user satisfaction. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to refine the product vision, manage the product backlog, and facilitate agile development practices. Our goal is to deliver products that exceed customer expectations and drive business success.

We are seeking a highly skilled and versatile individual to join our team as a Technical Product Manager. In this dual role, you will be responsible for leading the product development process from concept to delivery, while also facilitating the agile development methodology.

What You'll Do

• Collaborate with Product Management to understand, communicate, and continuously refine the product vision, strategy, and goals based on market trends, customer feedback, and business objectives.
• Create and prioritize the product backlog, ensuring it reflects the most valuable features and user stories, and work with stakeholders to gather requirements, refine user stories, and define acceptance criteria.
• Break down epics into smaller, actionable user stories that can be delivered within a single sprint, and manage project scope effectively to balance stakeholder expectations, resource constraints, and project objectives.
• Participate in release planning meetings to establish a release schedule and scope, and determine the priority of features and user stories for each release based on business value and dependencies.
• Act as the primary liaison between the development team, product team, and stakeholders, keeping all parties informed of project progress and changes, and soliciting feedback to validate product assumptions and ensure alignment.
• Collaborate closely with the development team to clarify requirements, provide feedback on deliverables, and ensure alignment with the product vision, participating in sprint planning, daily stand-ups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.
• Remove impediments and obstacles that hinder the team's progress, escalating issues when necessary, and coach team members on agile principles and best practices to foster a culture of continuous improvement.
• Ensure adherence to scrum processes and ceremonies, while adapting practices to suit the team's needs, fostering collaboration and communication within the team and with external stakeholders, and tracking key agile metrics such as sprint velocity and burn-down charts.
• Work with the development team to define acceptance criteria for user stories, verify that deliverables meet these criteria before acceptance, ensure the product meets quality standards and regulatory requirements through continuous testing and validation, and conduct user acceptance testing.
• Collaborate closely with UX/UI designers to co-create design requirements, wireframes, and prototypes, participate in design workshops and brainstorming sessions, conduct detailed design reviews with the development team, and provide feedback and guidance on design iterations to optimize user experience and interface aesthetics.
• Determine functional requirements and design the chosen path for Replicon Time Tracking CAPEX, including software configuration and interfaces, writing technical/functional requirements, and conducting UAT testing.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Engineering, Business Administration) or equivalent practical experience.
• Proven experience as a Technical Product Owner, with a strong understanding of product management principles and practices.
• Certification as a Scrum Master (e.g., CSM, PSM) with practical experience leading agile teams is a plus.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively engage with stakeholders at all levels.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a keen attention to detail.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and adapt to changing priorities.
• Experience in creating and prioritizing product backlogs, managing project scope, and participating in release planning.
• Collaborative mindset with the ability to work closely with development teams, UX/UI designers, and stakeholders to deliver high-quality products.
