Product Owner
Technical Product Owner (Contract)
Location: Northampton
About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on Technical Product Owner who can effectively bridge the gap between business and technology teams. The ideal candidate will:
- Challenge delivery assumptions
- Make informed prioritisation decisions
- Drive successful migration outcomes in a complex enterprise environment
- Demonstrate strong delivery leadership
- Exhibit excellent stakeholder management capabilities
- Have experience working on large-scale cloud or data platform transformation programmes
The role combines product ownership, technical delivery leadership, and stakeholder management to ensure business requirements are translated into prioritised backlogs, delivered through Agile engineering teams, and migrate business capabilities to the Enterprise Data Platform (EDP).
Unlike a traditional Product Owner, this role is highly technical and delivery-focused, requiring expertise in:
- Cloud migration
- Data platforms
- Engineering delivery lifecycles
- Platform dependencies
- Enterprise governance processes
The Technical Product Owner owns delivery outcomes but is not responsible for detailed solution architecture or day-to-day engineering execution.
Key Responsibilities

- Define and communicate:
- Clear product objectives
- Delivery priorities
- Success measures
- Translate business strategy and migration objectives into actionable delivery plans
- Drive delivery of business outcomes through Agile squads
- Balance:
- Business priorities
- Technical dependencies
- Delivery constraints
- Risk
- Ensure alignment with:
- Programme roadmap
- Migration milestones
Backlog Ownership & Prioritisation
- Manage squad backlog effectively
- Prioritise Epics, Features, and User Stories based on:
- Business value
- Technical dependencies
- Programme objectives
- Collaborate with Technical Business Analysts
- Ensure backlog items comply with Definition of Ready (DoR) standards
- Make prioritisation decisions amid competing demands
- Support:
- Quarterly planning
- Sprint planning
- Roadmap reviews
- Coordinate backlog dependencies across multiple squads and workstreams
