VSHN, pronounced like “vision,” specializes in supporting software development teams to make their work testable, deployable, scalable, and operable in any cloud environment, with a focus on efficiency and automation. We achieve this by providing self-service platform products like Managed OpenShift, APPUiO and Application Catalog to developers that ease the development and deployment cycle, sharing application operations responsibility through close collaboration with developers.
Your New Role: Product Owner Managed OpenShift & APPUiO Cloud
As the Product Owner, you will bridge the gap between our internal customer representatives (Account Managers) and other stakeholders to strategize, plan your team's sprint work, and balance day-to-day operations, supported by Pre-Sales Solution Architects and a Scrum Master for the meta-level. You will steer the further development of a mature VSHN product offering and existing customer setups as well as our shared Kubernetes offering APPUiO Cloud. For us, being a Product Owner is more than just filling the backlog based on stakeholder feedback - you can directly drive the business by working closely with Marketing & Sales, you own the product and are thus involved in the overall strategy and goal setting with your team, of which you are a permanent member.
Managed OpenShift and APPUiO Cloud Explained
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to further evolve these offerings with a focus on more stability, scalability and enriching features to increase value for our customers. You’ll be part of a mature team working with Scrum and a dedicated Scrum Master.
