Job Description:

Come be a part of the exciting digital transformation happening at Munters, where we bring an entrepreneurial mindset to the development of digital tools and capabilities that connect and enable our business. Our team is growing, and we are looking for a Product Owner / Senior Product Owner to join us. This is a broad role, so we need someone who is comfortable switching context and keeping a clear head across multiple products and priorities at once. Day to day you will be close to end users and stakeholders, understanding how they use our products, what is working well, and what isn't. You will need to understand the strategic direction of the projects and seek clarity to fill in information gaps. You will need to make sure the team has clear priorities, actionable requirements, and effective execution, while also contributing thoughtful input into roadmap and prioritization discussions. You will be responsible for tracking progress, managing progress, and keeping forecasts and deliverables visible to the right people. This is not a purely delivery-focused role though. We want someone who genuinely cares about the end user experience and brings that perspective into every decision. You will work in an Agile team, where collaboration is always a part of the process. You are a team player who enjoys sharing knowledge and learning new technologies. We succeed and fail together. It's less fragile, more fun and leads to better results.

Stay close to end users and stakeholders through regular direct contact, turning real feedback and needs into clear requirements and roadmap decisions. Contribute to roadmap planning and sequencing in partnership with product leadership, using customer insight, delivery realities, dependencies, and business priorities to help shape decisions. Track progress against deliverables and make sure nothing slips quietly, flagging risks early and keeping the team focused on what matters. Manage and report on progress and forecasts, giving stakeholders clear and honest visibility of projects. Set clear delivery expectations and maintain accountability, without turning everything into overhead. Work closely with developers to understand technical constraints and make good trade-off decisions. Run and participate in sprint planning, backlog refinement and reviews in a way that keeps things moving, ensuring that upcoming sprint work is sufficiently refined, prioritized, and ready to execute. Keep stakeholders informed and aligned, knowing when to go into detail and when to keep it at a high level. Contribute to team ceremonies and help foster a collaborative and positive team culture.
