About the role
At BETWEEN we offer you the opportunities you need to achieve your professional goals. If you want to develop your skills in IT and Engineering, this is your next destination! We provide support across a wide range of areas such as Firmware, Software, BI, Design, Project Management and many more. We also develop custom technology solutions from our BETWEEN Labs.
At Between Technology we are looking for a Product Owner to join a strategic technology platform project, whose goal is the evolution of a core product based on an API that serves multiple teams.
- This role is focused on the platform product: the API is the main product of the team and is designed, governed, and evolved as such. It is not focused on integrations or on consuming third-party APIs.
We are looking for someone with real experience in API-first, product ownership, and the ability to work in complex backend environments, coordinating with multiple stakeholders and consumer teams.
What you'll do
What will you do?
- Manage and negotiate the roadmap with stakeholders for initiatives and demands on an existing product.
- Be responsible for the product, whose core is an API, ensuring its evolution covers both current and future needs of consumer teams.
- Be the ultimate owner of the product backlog, prioritizing by value, impact, and risk.
- Work on the functional definition of the product alongside the development team, translating business needs into user stories and clear acceptance criteria.
- Communicate, align, and manage scope changes on the roadmap with internal stakeholders.
- Work hand in hand with the Unit Product Owner of the unit or the Chief Product Owner of the platform to understand stakeholder needs and define a roadmap aligned with the strategy.
- Design and propose new capabilities for the API product that bring value to consumer teams.
- Understand in depth the needs of the service-integrating clients and internal stakeholders.
- Apply prioritization and impact measurement techniques to negotiate initiatives and dependencies.
- Work very closely with the development team to resolve functional questions, unblock dependencies, and ensure proper implementation of the product.
- Drive the product by ensuring the team delivers real business value.
- Communicate and align all stakeholders around the product vision.
- Define and maintain a clear, visible, and shared roadmap.
- Define product functionalities in a way that is understandable for technical teams.
- Prioritize needs considering scope, time, and cost.
- Oversee the product's evolution during its development.
- Define and track product metrics and usage.
- Anticipate product problems and needs.
- Represent the voice of internal users / consumer teams.
- Plan product launches and evolutions.
- Act as product ambassador and point of reference.
- Make decisions based on data.
- Foster a culture of data-driven decision making.
- Write user stories and validate their acceptance in Agile / Scrum environments.
What you'll get
Additionally, as a Betweener, you will get the following benefits:
- You will join a high-performance team with a high level of specialization.
- Personalized training plans with our BTW University (Languages with Speexx, The Power Business School, Udemy, Technical certifications, Pharos, etc).
- Health insurance and the option to choose how to receive part of your salary thanks to the tax advantages of our Flexible Remuneration plan.

Requirements
- Previous experience as Product Manager or Product Owner.
- Experience in digital platforms / e-commerce contexts.
- Experience with API products, especially in API-first environments, where the API is a central piece of the product (not just consuming APIs).
- Experience in Agile / Scrum environments.

- Experience working with OKRs.
- Experience in stakeholder management and decision making.
- Ability to work on products that are primarily backend, without UI as a central focus.
