About the Role


Sago Mini is seeking a Product Owner to manage the day to day of the team responsible for Piknik, our bundle subscription service.

  • Appreciate the power of a good checklist or spreadsheet.
  • Take pride in spotting bugs in the software they use day to day.
  • Are a clear and concise communicator.
  • Find yourself being the go-to person for answers on the details for projects you work on.
  • Deeply care about delivering great experiences to kids and parents.



What You’ll Be Doing


  • Run regular sprint meetings with a product team that includes developers, designers and other stakeholders.
  • Facilitate the hand off of builds to the QA and release teams.
  • Break down new features into tasks and track through to completion.
  • Group features and bug fixes into releases.
  • Assess and update estimates and risks associated with delivery.
  • Stay in constant contact with the team and partner studios to ensure progress along the way.
  • Ensure the team addresses any outstanding questions which might slow down their progress.
  • Document new features, processes, requirements and tools.
  • Set up and monitor feature rollout metrics.
  • Work with QA to assess and prioritize bug reports.



Qualifications and Skills


  • Bachelor degree or diploma in a related field.
  • 3-5 years of experience working as part of a small to medium sized team delivering a b2c digital service.
  • Real-world experience managing the day-to-day of agile software development teams.
  • Able to quickly dig through and synthesize technical documentation.
  • Working knowledge of project management and bug tracking software.
  • Demonstrated ability to learn quickly.
  • Ability to manage competing priorities.
  • Strong attention to detail.



Nice to Haves


  • Previous experience working on mobile apps.
  • Experience working with b2c software-as-a-service products.
  • Experience using asana for project management.
  • Previous experience in software QA and/or technical documentation.



About the Process


  • You’ll get an email response confirming we’ve received your application, and we’ll let you know within a few weeks if we’d like to schedule a follow-up.
  • If you’re moving ahead, we’ll book a call to learn more about your experience.
  • If that goes well, we’ll have you meet with the hiring manager and members of the team prior to making a decision.



We welcome and encourage applications from people with disabilities. Accommodations are available upon request for candidates taking part in all aspects of the selection process.
