Desirable

• We are looking for a Junior Product Owner to help drive our tracking and automated officiating products forward
• In this role, you will bridge the gap between technical execution and operational excellence
• You will keep the technical depth and operational focus of an engineer while taking structured ownership of backlog definition, prioritisation, and delivery outcomes
• Working across complex, real-time software-hardware integrated systems in live stadium and broadcast environments, you will directly impact how our world-leading tracking platforms perform on the global stage
• Product Definition & Backlog Ownership: Act as the voice of users, operators, and the business. Translate needs into epics, features, and user stories for small-to-medium changes, and maintain a prioritised backlog using data, value, and risk
• Quality & Testing Coordination: Define and coordinate QC activities (functional, integration, regression, and UAT). Lead defect detection, triage, validation, and root cause investigations to ensure our tracking systems remain incredibly accurate and reliable
• Cross-Functional Delivery: Work day-to-day with Engineering, QA, TechOps, and UX teams to align on scope. Participate fully in Agile ceremonies, monitor support channels, and coordinate third-line support within your scope
• Deployment & Early-Life Support: Create and maintain documentation, runbooks, and training materials. Support pilots, staged roll-outs, and early-life support until tracking products are smoothly embedded in live, real-time match operations
• Growth Toward Level 4: Build your capabilities across the full product lifecycle. With coaching from senior POs and Product Managers, you will begin shaping short-range roadmaps, defining OKRs, and handling increasing ambiguity
