Hawk-Eye Innovations (HEI) - Junior Product Owner
Requirements
• 1–3 years of experience in a product-related role (e.g., Associate Product Owner, Business Analyst, QA, Broadcast Operator, or similar) working on technically complex products. • Strong technical grounding with the ability to communicate effectively with software engineers, QA, and media operators across hardware-software integrated systems. • Proven experience coordinating QC/regression testing and managing defect resolution. • Video & Media Comfort: Basic understanding or experience working with video streaming, capture technology, media formats, or data-oriented products, with the ability to interpret basic operational telemetry. • Excellent communication skills and a proactive mindset to plan your own work, handle live environment ambiguity, and escalate risks appropriately. • Experience supporting product launches and creating technical documentation or tutorial content for broadcast teams. • Exposure to stakeholder engagement, prioritization frameworks, and roadmap contribution. • Experience working with products that combine software, high-performance video capture hardware, and graphics engines in high-pressure, live broadcast, or real-time sports environments (e.g., OB vans, master control rooms).
Responsibilities
• Product Definition & Backlog Ownership: Act as the voice of broadcast operators, directors, and the business. Translate needs into epics, features, and user stories for small-to-medium changes, and maintain a prioritized backlog using data, value, and risk. • Quality & Testing Coordination: Define and coordinate QC activities (functional, video/audio stream integration, regression, and UAT). Lead defect detection, triage, validation, and root cause investigations to ensure our replay and graphics systems remain incredibly stable and reliable. • Cross-Functional Delivery: Work day-to-day with Software Engineering, Video Infrastructure, QA, TechOps, and UI/UX teams to align on scope. Participate fully in Agile ceremonies, monitor support channels, and coordinate third-line support within your scope. • Deployment & Early-Life Support: Create and maintain documentation, technical runbooks, and training materials. Support live studio pilots, staged roll-outs, and early-life support until video and graphics products are smoothly embedded in live, high-pressure match operations. • Growth Toward Senior Product Ownership: Build your capabilities across the full product lifecycle. With coaching from senior POs and Product Managers, you will begin shaping short-range roadmaps, defining OKRs, and handling increasing ambiguity.
