About the Position

As a Product Owner with Curate, you’ll be responsible for overseeing the feature development of our product and the efficient execution of Curate’s software development lifecycle. You will track and prioritize tasks, create timelines and roadmaps, and provide other cross-functional project management support to improve the many facets of Curate.

About the Team

Curate helps businesses efficiently monitor risk and find opportunities through municipal data - at scale. We scan thousands of local government websites looking for meeting minutes and agendas where decisions are made that impact our business customers. Based in Madison, WI the 25 member Curate team works collaboratively to ensure we’re always improving the product for our customers.

The Engineering Team is a close-knit group of generalists that work together to build the best local government tracking service available on the market. Everyone brings a different skillset and level of expertise to their specific work.

About You

The team is counting on you to have experience working with many different teams within a business to deliver high-value products, but with a specific focus on working closely with the engineering team. Things like agile, roadmapping, prioritizing bugs, and really digging into feature requests to make sure we solve the right problems are second nature to you. You thrive in an environment where many competing directions all seem reasonable, but only one can be chosen and it doesn’t scare you to be a part of the team that makes the choice.

What to Expect in this Position:

• Ensure customer requests and issues related to the product are addressed, prioritized, and followed up on working closely with customer success and the management team.
• Coordinate development team tasks related to addressing fixes & updates, and manage feedback, prioritization, and quality assurance for product improvements and bug fixes.
• Work closely with the development team to organize and create issue tickets that provide the details necessary to complete the tasks.
• Provide feedback on internal software updates as needed, and work collaboratively with Curate team members to continuously improve internal systems.
• Gather/compile topics of discussion and facilitate cross-functional product meetings for near-term and long-term product features and improvements.
• Manage communication about product releases and feature updates to the proper stakeholders.

What Sets You Apart:

• You have at least 1 year of experience working in a similar product owner or business analyst role specifically working with an engineering delivery team
• You have superior attention to detail and can pick up on what someone is really asking when they talk about a feature or bug
• You can juggle many tasks and thrive at being able to not let important things fall through the cracks
• You have experience working with engineers and stakeholders to write descriptive user stories
• You have worked with project management tools for software development such as Jira
• With minimal direction, you can work to solve underlying problems in process and provide suggestions of alternative solutions

Considering US locations only for this position and time zone requirements may apply in order to address team and business needs.
