Job description

We are looking for a Product Owner to lead the evolution of VATify, our VAT compliance and e-invoicing/e-reporting platform. You will be the voice of the customer within the development team and the person responsible for translating product strategy into a prioritised, actionable backlog, with end-to-end ownership of delivery. You will connect business needs, regulatory obligations and product vision with the day-to-day work of engineering, making sure every sprint delivers real value to the user.

What You Will Do

  • Keep a product backlog that is prioritised, refined and has clear acceptance criteria at all times, aligned with strategy and roadmap.
  • Write unambiguous user stories and functional specs, so engineering never has to chase you for clarifications.
  • Lead the agile ceremonies (refinement, sprint planning, review and retrospective) consistently, in collaboration with the CPTO and Tech Lead.
  • Unblock the team during delivery: triage, trade-offs and escalation when needed.
  • Act as the main bridge between engineering, design, QA and business stakeholders (customers, sales, support, compliance).
  • Translate regulatory requirements (VAT, e-invoicing, country-specific rules) into actionable specs.
  • Coordinate with the implementation and customer success teams so changes land cleanly with the customer.
  • Define and enforce clear acceptance criteria, take part in QA and UX, and sign off releases.
  • Keep stakeholders informed with concise, precise updates, and document decisions and their rationale to avoid relying on tribal knowledge.
  • Push back on scope creep constructively, without breaking relationships.
  • Measure the impact of what is delivered through product metrics (adoption, usage, satisfaction) and iterate accordingly.

Requirements

Do you have experience in UX?, * Proven experience (6+ years) as a Product Owner or Product Manager, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead role, within a B2B SaaS environment.

  • A demonstrated track record of end-to-end ownership in fast-paced agile environments.
  • Solid command of agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban) and hands-on use of Jira and agile ceremonies with no hand-holding.
  • Comfort with technical complexity (APIs, integrations, data flows), enough to engage with engineering as an equal.
  • Exceptional at writing clear requirements: stories, specs and acceptance criteria with no room for interpretation.
  • Surgical organisation: you track everything, nothing slips, and delivery always keeps moving.
  • Direct communication: able to say no, explain why, and keep the relationship intact.
  • Calm under pressure and good judgement with incomplete information.
  • An analytical, results-driven mindset, comfortable making data-based decisions.

Bonus

  • Experience in fintech, tax-tech or regulatory compliance products.
  • Knowledge of European VAT regulation and e-invoicing mandates.
  • Familiarity with API integrations and SaaS architectures.
  • Experience working with data/AI teams and with products built around country-specific regulatory obligations.
  • Fluent professional English (multilingual environment).
  • Product or agile certifications (CSPO, PSPO).

Benefits & conditions

Why Join Us?

  • Build real-world FinTech products that solve complex problems for global enterprises.
  • Join a collaborative and ambitious team where your input will directly shape the product.
  • Develop your skills through exposure to modern technologies and experienced colleagues.
  • Thrive in a culture that values ownership, growth, and impact.
  • Enjoy great perks, including a fully stocked kitchen with snacks and a Metropolitan gym membership.
