Product Owner (m/f/d) for OpenTalk

We are looking for a dedicated Product Owner (m/f/d) to complement our OpenTalk-team.
This is your unique opportunity to work on a versatile product that combines UX challenges with a cutting-edge technical architecture — and to play a key role in shaping the next video conferencing tool. As an essential part of the Product Team, you'll help bringing the best possible product solutions to the market.

Your tasks

• You take ownership: You act as the link between the Product Manager’s strategic vision and its successful implementation. This includes ongoing coordination with the Product Manager and relevant stakeholders.
• You orchestrate the development process: You prioritize and manage the product backlog in close collaboration with the development team, ensuring timely delivery and quality of product increments. Naturally, maintaining a keen awareness of our deadlines will be of the utmost importance.
• You keep us on track: You ensure detailed preparation and communication of user stories and acceptance criteria, and lead sprint planning, review, and retrospective meetings.
• You are user-centered: You gather and analyze user feedback and contribute to the ongoing improvement of the product.

Your profile

• You're a pro: You have several years of experience as a Product Owner in agile development environments or in a similar role, and possess a strong understanding of technical contexts and development processes.
• You're data-driven: You analyze complex requirements and translate them into actionable user stories (ideally using Gherkin). You have a solid command of agile methods such as Scrum or Kanban, along with strong conceptual skills — without ever losing sight of the user’s perspective.
• You drive things forward: You bring excellent communication and presentation skills, paired with experience working in cross-functional teams, including frontend, backend and media engineering experts. You are able to realistically assess requirements and possess a strong problem-solving mindset and decision-making ability.
