Product Owner

Product Owner

It's more than a job

In this IT role, you will manage, develop, and support the technology infrastructure that powers Kuehne+Nagel’s global systems and operations. This contribution is vital to making both special and ordinary moments in the lives of people a reality. In fact, your work enables our teams to deliver fresh fruit, time-sensitive healthcare products and much more to people all around the world. Working in IT at Kuehne+Nagel contributes to more than we imagine.

We're looking for a senior Product Owner/Manager to take over the ownership of our Customer Visibility Platform — a 5-year-old product that gives our Transport & Logistics customers real-time insight into their shipments: location tracking, condition monitoring, and related data services. The platform has a strong foundation and an established customer base. Your mission is to keep the innovation pace, challenge the roadmap with fresh, out-of-the-box thinking, and turn ideas into shipped, value-adding features — working daily with a distributed dev team and closely with our Implementation and Customer Management colleagues.

How you create impact

• Own the product backlog and roadmap for the Customer Visibility Platform, balancing innovation with delivery reliability
• Translate customer needs and market trends into clear epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria for the dev team
• Work daily with a cross-functional, engineering team (frontend, backend, DevOps) — prioritizing, unblocking, and reviewing delivered work
• Partner closely with Implementation and Customer Management teams to gather feedback, scope new value-added services, and ensure smooth rollout to customers
• Identify and prototype new features (e.g. new data/insight services, alerting, analytics) that extend the platform's value proposition
• Occasionally engage with Cx-level stakeholders to present roadmap updates and secure buy-in for new initiatives
• Monitor product usage and customer feedback to continuously refine priorities

What we would like you to bring

• 5+ years of experience in Product Management or Product Ownership, ideally on a data/SaaS or B2B digital platform
• Comfortable operating at both strategic level (roadmap, stakeholder alignment) and tactical level (backlog grooming, agile ceremonies) — strong Product Ownership skills are a must; broader Product Management exposure is a plus
• Proven experience working directly with engineering teams in an Agile/Scrum setup
• Good stakeholder management skills; comfortable presenting to senior stakeholders when needed, even if this isn't a daily occurrence
• Excellent communication skills in English; comfortable working in a fully remote, distributed, multi-location team
• Curious, autonomous, and comfortable challenging the status quo to drive innovation
• Experience in Transport & Logistics, supply chain visibility, or IoT/tracking data is a strong plus, but not mandatory
