The Technical Product Owner (TPO) acts as the primary interface between business strategy and engineering execution. Unlike a Business Analyst, the TPO owns the "What" and "How" from the technical perspective of the product, ensuring that the engineering team builds high-impact, scalable solutions that align with the Heineken EverGreen strategy. The TPO is responsible for maximizing the value of the technical product by maintaining a healthy, prioritized backlog and making critical trade-off decisions between new features and technical health.
Zakres obowiązków:
defining and prioritising technical user stories and requirements in collaboration with the Product Owner based on business value and technical dependencies
acting as the bridge between Business Analysts (demand) and Technology Specialists (execution) to align expectations
defining the 6-12 month vision for the technical product (e.g. API platforms, Data Lakes or Cloud Infrastructure)
partnering with Architects to make trade-off decisions between speed to market and technical debt or sustainability, while contributing to detailed design and low-level architecture
defining the "Definition of Done" and "Acceptance Criteria", ensuring delivered increments meet high functional and technical standards
monitoring KPIs to measure the success, adoption and performance of the technical product.
