Product Owner
Berlin, Germany · FULL TIME
About the role
Senior Product Owner talent pool in Berlin, focused on acceptance that a team can test.
Employer assignments use this pool when they need a Product Owner in Berlin, Germany, who is accountable for acceptance that a team can test. The useful week is spent writing examples, including the unhappy path, and being available to clarify, with mistakes corrected in the open rather than buried.
Responsibilities
- Review the example for a normal case and correct it before anyone else relies on it.
- Keep a single current unhappy path, and archive the older copy once you have dealt with a case that should fail cleanly.
- Ask the person testing the work to challenge the clarification, especially around a question you answered the same day.
- Write the assumption behind the change to acceptance in two or three plain sentences, and mention a change made before the work is done, not after.
- Compare this week's demo note with the previous one and explain the what you expect to see.
- Stop and rework the reject note if you find the why something is not accepted.
Requirements
- Roughly 5 to 8 years of writing acceptance a team can test that matches this product owner profile, or a shorter record with the same kind of finished work.
- Practical skill with examples and unhappy paths in product owner work, not a certificate alone.
- Able to explain why you rejected a piece of work to a colleague who was not in the room.
- Careful with acceptance written after the work is finished; this is checked in review of product owner work.
- For the product owner brief in Berlin, use the working language of that assignment in Germany.
Nice to have
- Unhappy paths is useful on product owner assignments in Berlin, and it is not required.
- People who have already done same-day clarifications can start this product owner brief with less coaching.
- Reject notes is a plus for product owner work based in Berlin.
