You'll work closely with Project Managers, engineering teams, and stakeholders to translate business goals into a clear, executable product direction.
This is a role for someone who thinks in systems, acts on data, and treats AI as a genuine productivity multiplier not just a novelty. We expect you to apply AI tools thoughtfully and critically throughout your day-to-day work, knowing when to use them and, equally, when not to.

• Leverage AI tools and automation to optimize workflows and enhance output quality.
• Maintain an end-to-end ownership mentality, ensuring product success from inception to release.
• Foster a pragmatic and solution-oriented mindset, focusing on business impact and efficiency.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a Product Owner or in a similar role within a digital product environment.
• Strong analytical and strategic thinking skills, with a business-driven mindset.
• Ability to work closely with stakeholders and development teams to drive product success.
• Experience in requirement gathering, roadmap creation, and backlog prioritization.
• Excellent self-organization skills and the ability to work autonomously in a 100% remote setup.
• Familiarity with Jira and Kanban methodologies.
• Proficiency in leveraging AI tools and automation to improve workflow efficiency.
• Fluent English 
• German speaking

Why Join Us?

• Work in a fully remote and flexible environment.
• Be part of a fast-moving, innovative company in the Automotive IT sector.
• Lead the development of a key Business Unit, driving real business impact.
• Opportunity for professional growth and career development.

If you are passionate about product ownership, strategic thinking, and business impact, and thrive in a remote environment, we would love to hear from you!

Why you'll love working here:

• Private health insurance
• Flexible work model – hybrid or remote
• Equipment of your choice (laptop, monitor, accessories)
• High-growth company with innovative products
• Supportive, international team
• Budget for professional development (courses, books, conferences)
