Product Owner, Core Automation

Every day, we get opportunities to make a positive impact - on our colleagues, partners, customers, and society. Together, we're pioneering the solutions of the future and unlocking the full potential of precious resources. Trusted to act on initiative, we challenge conventional thinking to develop world-leading technologies that inspire progress in vital areas, including energy, food, water, and shipping.

As we push forward, the innovative, open spirit that fuels our 140-year-old start-up culture and rapid growth also drives our personal growth. So, as we shape a more resourceful, less wasteful world, we build our careers too.

In Core Automation, we work with an Agile delivery methodology for our OT product development. We strive to keep our clients, users, and their daily challenges in mind during the entire design and development process. We are looking for you who comfortably move between crafting product roadmaps, stakeholder alignment, and supporting the team with WIs in the backlog, and who loves to help us bring next-generation control system applications to life for our marine portfolio.
