đŸ„œ In a nutshell

Picnic's tech team has grown impressively every year. We launch new teams every ~12-18 months to make sure we keep the focus on building high quality products. Our Product Owners therefore grow in tandem with Picnic: you will be part of increasingly growing teams in people, numbers and complexity. The role has an important analytical part which centers around analyzing the data of both end-users and our systems. With the insights you develop, you steer the direction of our tech products that we build in-house (e.g. Picnic App, Warehouse Systems, Customer Service etc.).

Our approach: If you are someone fascinated by smart business models and building cool products, then let's definitely get in touch! During the recruitment process, we will understand together what your strengths are, what you can still learn and develop, and what product team would be your perfect match!

🎯 What you’ll do

  • Combine user research and data analysis to gain a deep understanding of the needs and wants of our customers and/or employees, and identify areas of improvement
  • Define and maintain the product roadmap in alignment with business stakeholders and our other product teams
  • Build and support a highly effective team in a rapidly growing organization, together with your technical counterpart
  • Foster an environment in which your team can excel and get the product to the next level

⭐ About you

  • You have a Master’s degree in Mathematics, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Econometrics, Robotics or related
  • You have 2-5 years of experience in a product-led organization, ideally as a Product Analyst or Product Owner
  • You have strong analytical and conceptual skills and the mindset of having data & tech at the core of everything you do
  • You're deeply passionate about shipping great products with great user experiences
  • You have solid interpersonal and collaborative skills to interact with different stakeholders
