Technical Product Owner

Dept is looking for a Technical Product Owner with a focus on Business Inteligence who will help us to build the best and most progressive internal tools for Dept!

As a Technical Product Owner you will lead our internal Business Intelligence team to build our Datawarehouse. You will be part of the Agile team that is responsible for defining Stories and prioritizing the Team Backlog to streamline the execution of program priorities while maintaining the conceptual and technical integrity of the features or components for the team. You will have a significant role in maximizing the value produced by the team and ensuring stories meet the user’s needs and comply with the Definition of Done. You will perform data analysis and communicate insights to senior stakeholders. Furthermore, you will assist in the creation, optimization and adaptation of business reports and dashboards and optimize the use of the internal systems like PowerBI. You will be the person that maintains and creates the crucial relationships with internal stakeholders such as the members of the management team and all business teams across Dept.

For this role we are looking for someone who will not only manage the team and the process but also helps to define the vision of the product and anticipate the needs of internal stakeholders. We are looking for someone who can critically evaluate the progress and translate the technical requirements and challenges into the business vision.

We are a young company and the best minds work every day for a wide range of customers, such as Adidas, Steelseries, Takeaway.com, bol.com, Samsung and Indigo. Yes, we are eager to bring on board the most talented experts in the game. But we are also looking for a perfect Dept-fit. Someone who is eager to learn and strives towards a better world, takes the stage, is a futurist at heart, and someone who is down to participate in curling activities once in a while. Ultimately, we are looking for a unique individual who can strengthen our collective. We strongly support diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

• Have an understanding of Data Warehouse (PowerBI, Tableau, Looker or similar), SQL and accessing APIs. (Experiences in development is a plus!)

WE OFFER:
