Job description: Join our Team01About this opportunity
We are looking for a skilled, experienced, and self-motivated Operation Product Owner (OPO) for the Packet Core test environment. You will be part of a team that values collaboration, teamwork, and work-life balance and work closely with Test Environment Scrum Masters, architects, APOs, other OPOs, XFT, and other teams to ensure that our test environment and labs serve their intended purpose: enabling the development and testing organizations to test according to their needs.
The role also focuses on managing the roadmap and prioritizing the test environment backlog. As the OPO you will ensure that the “why” behind each request is well understood and you communicate that vision clearly to engineering teams, maximizing product value. The role drives delivery by setting sprint and delivery goals, coordinating dependencies, removing blockers, and tracking performance against key objectives. The OPO works closely with APOs, other OPOs, development teams, and internal and external stakeholders to share progress and gather valuable feedback.
02What you will do
- Own, prioritize, and continuously improve the team backlog, with transparent visibility of all incoming requests.
- Create a clear vision by managing the roadmap, with a focus on the "why" behind each request.
- Set sprint and delivery goals, coordinate dependencies, remove roadblocks, and track progress against key objectives.
- Ensure that the lab and test environment meet the requirements of the PDU, PC, and CP development organizations.
- Act as a bridge between the E3 APO and stakeholders across the PDUs, combining business and technical aspects of the test environment.
- Communicate, coordinate, and align scope, timelines, and risks with internal and external stakeholders.
- Collaborate with other OPOs, APOs, and stakeholders to synchronize priorities and dependencies.
- Support the APOs and TE architects in priority discussions and decisions.
- Build a strong technical and business understanding so you can clearly explain the "what" and "why" to the teams.
- Make sure the team understands its purpose and contribution, supporting engagement and motivation.
- Ensure delivery meets high-quality standards and promote a product-level quality mindset within the team.
- Identify improvement needs and propose efficient ways to strengthen the Packet Core test and lab strategy.
03The skills you bring
- Solid understanding of Agile methodologies, including Scrum and Kanban, and strong backlog handling.
- Experience facilitating Agile team ceremonies.
- Knowledge of software product management and a product-level quality mindset.
- Experience with Confluence, Jira, or similar tools.
- Basic business and customer understanding.
- Strong decision-making, initiative, and relationship-building skills.
- Strong analytical reasoning and problem-solving abilities, with a proactive attitude.
- Delivering results and meeting customer expectations
- Strong time management and organizational skills.
- Ability to adapt to change and an open, innovative mindset.
- Strong knowledge-sharing and collaboration skills.
- Excellent written and verbal English communication.
