About the project

The Technical Product Owner (TPO) acts as the primary interface between business strategy and engineering execution. Unlike a Business Analyst, the TPO owns the "What" and "How" from the technical perspective of the product, ensuring that the engineering team builds high-impact, scalable solutions that align with the Heineken EverGreen strategy. The TPO is responsible for maximizing the value of the technical product by maintaining a healthy, prioritized backlog and making critical trade-off decisions between new features and technical health.

Your responsibilities

• defining and prioritising technical user stories and requirements in collaboration with the Product Owner based on business value and technical dependencies
• acting as the bridge between Business Analysts (demand) and Technology Specialists (execution) to align expectations
• defining the 6–12 month vision for the technical product (e.g. API platforms, Data Lakes or Cloud Infrastructure)
• partnering with Architects to make trade-off decisions between speed to market and technical debt or sustainability, while contributing to detailed design and low-level architecture
• defining the “Definition of Done” and “Acceptance Criteria”, ensuring delivered increments meet high functional and technical standards
• monitoring KPIs to measure the success, adoption and performance of the technical product.

Our requirements

• technical knowledge of a well-known tool for pricing, rebates and promotions maintenance and execution engine, or trade promotions management (e.g. SAP SD/CCM, Pricefx, Vistex, Flintfox, SAP OPPS, Talon.One)
• business process knowledge in pricing, rebates and trade promotions management
• 5+ years of experience as a Technical Product Manager or Technical Product Owner, specifically within a high-growth tech environment or a large-scale digital transformation
• deep understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
• professional background as a Software Engineer, Technical Architect or Systems Lead
• ability to challenge technical estimates, understand architectural trade-offs (e.g. monolith vs. microservices) and build credibility with engineering teams.
