Company mission
To provide high-quality cat food with human grade ingredients to help cats live healthier and happier lives.
Role
Who you are
- 5+ years’ experience of Product Ownership in B2C eCommerce
- Substantial experience of acting as a Product Owner for the development of web-based systems and mobile apps
- Familiarity with Scrum (or an equivalent agile development process)
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills and can express product requirements in a clear, structured fashion to both technical and non-technical audiences
- Ideally, a degree in a computing or related discipline. This is, however, not essential
- Prior experience with Shopify would be a distinct advantage
What the job involves
- Work closely with our engineering team to deliver high- quality enhancements to Untamed’s software products and platforms
- Ensure we have a clear backlog of work ready to be prioritised into sprints: review incoming “software change requests” from our users and triage, clarify, validate, and add them to the backlog
- Participate in agile ceremonies (daily stand-ups, sprint planning, demos, retrospectives, etc.)
- Lead the end-to-end discovery phase for new non-trivial initiatives
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Untamed was founded in 2019 to help cats live healthier lives, as a result of the lack of cat foods on the market. It aims to shake up the $75 billion pet industry by providing innovation and love to the overlooked and growing category of cat nutrition. By creating better quality cat food, Untamed is driving a cat food revolution.
Since growing out of the home kitchen, Untamed still focuses on the same healthy recipes, using cuts like chicken breast, chicken liver, tuna steak, mackerel, and salmon to differentiate itself from the processing used by big-name brands. It cooks all of these ingredients through gentle steaming to help preserve moisture and nutrients. Unlike most industry leaders, Untamed allows cat owners to receive a personalised and tailor-made food plan with a science-based approach.
Untamed's growth strategy is based on this approach of providing tailored and high-quality food to consumers, rather than focusing on unhealthy bulk production. Untamed is on the road to raising food standards across the industry, leading by example.
