We are seeking experienced Contract Technical Product Owners to support discovery and delivery for business-critical web and mobile products.

This is a contract, hourly, project-based role. We are building a bench of product leaders who can be engaged as client opportunities arise. Work is not guaranteed on a continuous basis; engagements will vary in scope and duration depending on client needs.

When engaged, you will:

Lead product delivery across client engagements, from discovery through release
Facilitate discovery workshops to define goals, requirements, and success metrics
Translate business needs into roadmaps, user stories, and actionable backlogs
Prioritize work and make tradeoff decisions based on value, risk, and timelines
Serve as a client-facing product lead, providing updates and recommendations
Manage and refine backlogs in Jira with clear, development-ready requirements
Facilitate agile ceremonies and support predictable, high-quality delivery
Partner with engineering, design, and QA teams to ensure strong outcomes
Identify risks early and drive resolution
Support pre-sales and early-stage discovery as needed

What We’re Looking For

6+ years of experience in product ownership, technical product management, or delivery
Proven track record leading software projects from discovery through launch
Strong ability to ramp quickly and operate independently in new environments
Comfortable with ambiguity; able to bring structure and clarity to complex work
Excellent communication skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Experience with Jira and modern product/delivery tools
Solid understanding of software development and technical tradeoffs

Ideal Profile

Experience as a consultant, contractor, or fractional product leader
Comfortable balancing strategic discovery with hands-on execution
Organized, proactive, and responsive in a remote environment
Motivated by flexible, project-based work

(4) We Succeed through Empathy – We will not win at the expense of our team, clients, and partners. We will thrive most when we include the needs and desires of those around us in our definition of success.*
