Product Owner (Canada)

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential healthcare technology organization in their search for a Product Owner based in Canada. This is a tactical, execution-focused role where you'll translate product strategy into clear, actionable work for development teams and drive the value delivered in every release and sprint.

As Product Owner, you'll own the backlog for a defined product area, work day-to-day with development and design teams, and ensure that what gets built matches what customers and the business need most. You'll serve as the primary connection point between product vision and development execution, combining strong product domain knowledge with hands-on agile delivery experience.

Responsibilities

• Own and prioritize the product backlog for an assigned product area, writing clear user stories and acceptance criteria that translate roadmap themes and customer requirements into actionable development work
• Partner daily with developers and designers throughout the development lifecycle—refinement, sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives—making timely trade-off decisions on scope, sequencing, and priority
• Validate that delivered features meet acceptance criteria and the intended customer or business outcome, serving as the day-to-day point of contact for development on requirements, intent, and priority
• Gather and synthesize input from Sales, Customer Success, Support, and customers to inform backlog refinement, and support Product Managers with market research, competitive analysis, and feature-level requirements
• Track and report on sprint and release progress, velocity, and delivery metrics, proactively flagging risks to scope or timeline
• Incorporate feedback from user acceptance testing and beta programs into subsequent backlog iterations

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Bachelor's degree in engineering, business, technology, or equivalent experience
• 2-4 years of experience as a Product Owner, Business Analyst, or in a related agile delivery/product role at a software company
• Working knowledge of agile/scrum methodologies and hands-on experience with backlog and sprint management tools such as Jira or Azure DevOps
• Demonstrated ability to translate strategic direction and customer needs into clear, actionable user stories and acceptance criteria
• Experience partnering directly with development teams, with comfort leading technical discussions on feasibility, sequencing, and trade-offs
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail in requirements definition and quality validation
• Working understanding of enterprise-scale, cloud-hosted, and SaaS technologies

Preferred:

• Healthcare IT experience
• Demonstrated ability to lead through influence rather than authority
• Exceptional communication and organizational skills, with a track record of collaboration across development, design, and cross-functional business teams
