We are looking for a Product Manager to play a key role in shaping and delivering digital products within an application development environment.

They will collaborate closely with stakeholders and cross-functional teams to translate business goals and user needs into clear product direction, priorities, and actionable plans. From early discovery through delivery, they will ensure teams are focused on building valuable, high-quality solutions in dynamic and fast-paced contexts. They will drive alignment across teams, balancing product vision, user experience, and technical constraints, while maintaining a strong focus on solving the right problems before building solutions.

* Lead product discovery efforts, identifying, shaping, and validating problems, opportunities, and potential solutions before development.

* Understand business needs and translate them into clear product definitions, scope, priorities, and delivery strategy, ensuring alignment between product direction and execution.

* Collaborate with stakeholders, users, and cross-functional teams to define hypotheses and validate them through research, data, and experimentation.

* Own and manage the product backlog, ensuring it is aligned with project goals and continuously refined.

* Write structured user stories and acceptance criteria to guide development teams.

* Work closely with development, UX/UI, and QA throughout the full delivery lifecycle.

* Lead and facilitate agile ceremonies, ensuring alignment, clarity, and team effectiveness.

* Align stakeholders and technical teams, ensuring clarity, focus, and shared understanding.

* Validate deliverables and ensure outcomes meet both business and user expectations.

* Own the end-to-end delivery process, ensuring timely execution, quality outcomes, and alignment with business goals.

* Adapt to changing priorities, multiple projects, and evolving environments, while maintaining clear ownership of team coordination, delivery follow-up, and progress tracking.

Requirements

* Experience working as a Product Owner, Product Manager, Business Analyst, or similar role.

* Background in application development projects (web and/or mobile).

* Ability to translate business needs into structured, actionable requirements.

We value people who

* Are proactive, structured, and solution-oriented.
