Role Description :

Join us on our journey of building an industry-leading software technology platform that is helping pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies accelerate life-saving therapies to market.

Scitara has an opening for Product Owner of our core SaaS product. What Product Owner means to us, is an individual who works with Product Management and the Development team to convert requirements into realized product features.

This individual must understand technologies used in a modern SaaS application (see below) so they can effectively communicate with the development team. They will help prioritize and groom issues based on requirements identified by product management, plan and breakdown release cycles into digestible chunks and manage the day-to-day, week-to-week execution of these cycles to keep the development team on track. Ninja-level skills in Jira would be helpful.

Knowledge of laboratory instrumentation, informatics or workflows would be a bonus, but we can teach you that part. It is critical that the Product Owner can coordinate across teams and time zones. A Product Owner is the interpreter, negotiator and coordinator who is ultimately responsible for getting releases delivered on time. If you have the above and are the “speak quietly but carry a big stick” kind or can carry the respect of people who have just met you – we want you to be our Product Owner (but, um, you can’t bring your stick)

Key Responsibilities

  • Work collaboratively with Development and Product Management in a multicultural environment to convert identified product requirements into product features
    • Plan release cycles/breakdown release cycles into deliverable chunks
    • Build wireframes to guide frontend development • Build flow/activity diagrams to illustrate multi-service process flow intent
