Why this role

We build software that real businesses run on. You'll join a small, senior, high-velocity team where you own the product vision and delivery end-to-end, not backlog grooming pre-chewed by someone else. You'll work closely with senior engineers, steer AI-assisted development workflows, and drive features from concept to production within weeks.

This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, user value, and operational clarity, not just Jira statuses.

Let's be honest about AI in 2026 We build fast with modern AI tooling (Cursor, Claude, Copilot, etc.). As our Product Owner, you don't need to write production code yourself, but you must understand how modern AI-native development changes delivery cycles, estimation, and scoping.

Let's be honest about AI in 2026 We build fast with modern AI tooling (Cursor, Claude, Copilot, etc.). As our Product Owner, you don't need to write production code yourself, but you must understand how modern AI-native development changes delivery cycles, estimation, and scoping.

The AI tools can write code, but they don't know what our customers actually need, how workflows connect across businesses, or what trade-offs make sense for our architecture. We hire you for that judgment. The bar isn't "can you write a user story template." The bar is: can you translate messy business realities into crystal-clear product requirements, prioritize ruthlessly, and steer both human developers and AI assistants toward building the right thing efficiently?

Tasks

What you'll do

Own the product roadmap and backlog: define, scope, and sequence features from concept to production.
Translate high-level business goals into precise, actionable requirements and data models that our engineering team and AI tools can execute on.
Bridge communication seamlessly across stakeholders, developers, and users in
German, English, and Italian.
Manage sprints, remove blockers, and maintain high velocity without unnecessary bureaucratic overhead.
Review shipped features against acceptance criteria, ensuring high quality, solid
UX, and real business impact.
Refine our product processes as we scale, keeping feedback loops tight and developer experience smooth.

Our stack & workflow (what you'll navigate)

Methodology: Agile, lean product development, short iteration cycles, low bureaucracy
Tech Ecosystem: TypeScript, Python, React, Next.js, Supabase, Postgres,
Cloudflare
AI-Native Tools: Cursor, Copilot, Claude Code as standard parts of our building process
Communication: Fluent professional proficiency in English, German, and Italian
You won't need to code, but you need to speak fluent tech and understand how modern software is built under the hood.

Requirements

What we're looking for
Must-haves
Demonstrated experience as a Product Owner, Technical Project Manager, or
Product Lead in software development.
Fluency in German, English, and Italian (spoken and written) — essential for our cross-border operations and stakeholder management.
Strong technical literacy: you understand modern web stacks, databases (Postgres), APIs, and how software architecture works.
Familiarity with AI-assisted software development workflows and how they impact product planning and velocity.
Obsession with clarity: ability to write concise specs, edge-cases, and acceptance criteria that eliminate ambiguity.
Autonomous, pragmatic, and proactive working style suited for freelance engagement.
Nice-to-haves
Background in software engineering or computer science.
Experience working with early-stage startups or fast-moving senior product teams.
Hands-on experience with modern collaboration and project tools (Linear,
Notion, GitHub Projects).
We care far more about your structuring judgment and execution speed than your CV length.
