Product Owner - Data Platform & API

Cuebiq is Italy's only true Big Data product company: we gather, analyze, engineer and visualize 4 billion GPS positions per day, with the mission of providing unique business insights and offline analytics to our clients through our SaaS Platform, Clara.

We are an élite team of young, passionate, talented and friendly data professionals. As our (Technical) Product Owner - Data Platform & API, you will be part of our R&D Product Team, with the goal of ensuring structure, scalability and privacy-compliance across our large foundational datasets and building blocks, as well as guarantee a proper “data-feeding” of other Product & Engineering Teams working on multiple use cases delivered through our SaaS Platform, and taking care of API design & integrations from a Product standpoint. 

Our ideal candidate is an experienced IT professional with a technical and/or data background mixed with a good product sense, a goal-oriented mindset and good leadership skills, eager to bring knowledge to our growing team in a challenging and fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities

  • You will work on a daily-basis with a Tech Lead and a team of talented engineers, managing the product backlog, sizing work, planning sprints and ensuring the proper implementation and communication of the release plan, in respect of defined milestones and delivery goals. 
  • Together with a Product Manager, you will be in charge of writing product specs and requirements and maintain an ordered backlog of user stories for technical solutions and features which meet business requirements, match our product strategy as well as our internal/external clients’ needs, spanning from Data Feeds to APIs, from Partner Integration to SDK. 
  • You will work together with the other Product Owners / Product Team to make sure our foundational datasets are ready to serve all of our SaaS Platform use cases and features, contributing to the overall Product Roadmap and mapping and managing dependencies in a proactive and timely manner.  
  • Be the reference point and the subject matter expert for your area of responsibility, creating and maintaining product documentation, release notes and product deliverables, and supporting the Product Manager in coordinating with internal and external business stakeholders.

Required skills:

  • 4/5+ years of working experience in IT organizations as a product owner / technical product owner (or as a software engineer, solution architect, technical leader).
  • Familiarity with Agile development lifecycle, methodologies and principles.
  • Previous experience with large datasets, API specification and/or SDK is a very nice to have.
  • Technical background is a nice to have - you are comfortable in navigating large datasets and familiar with SQL / Database Query - while keeping an eye to the end-user experience.   

We’re also looking for:

  • Results driven mindset, positive attitude and collaboration: you are eager to celebrate on-time deploys with your team! 
  • Excellent people skills, with a positive and collaborative approach
  • The ability to say no — and to explain why
  • English C1 level or above - our HQs are in New York and you will work with colleagues there, and travel there often
  • Experience working in a distributed organization 
  • Insatiable curiosity

The perks we offer:

  • If you’re like us, we know you’ll enjoy having a generous learning budget; smart working; a super casual office environment with a fully stocked kitchen, games, lounge area
  • You’ll also be excited by our international annual company retreats - last year we went at Bahamas. Also, you’ll get to travel with us: around Milan, with our free yearly ATM pass and, maybe, back and forth from our New York office
  • Plus the serious stuff your parents and your family will ask about: health insurance for yourself and next of kin.
