Digital Product Owner

Job description

Apply now and help shape how thousands of our developers build software in Volvo.

What you will do

Are you passionate about developer experience, platform thinking, and building tools that make engineering teams thrive?

 

We’re looking for a Senior Digital Product Owner to join our Golden Path team —the team behind our internal developer platform that simplifies and secures the software delivery lifecycle.

 

We build reusable CI/CD templates, Infrastructure as Code patterns, secure-by-default workflows, and developer portals powered by Backstage. Our work empowers thousands of engineers across the company to ship software faster, safer, and with greater confidence.

· 
Contribute to the strategy and roadmap for our developer toolchain

· 
Collaborate with engineering, security, and platform teams to deliver intuitive, scalable tools

· 
Evolve our offerings to support the full SDLC—from idea to production

· 
Foster a strong culture of ownership, psychological safety, and continuous feedback within the team

· 
Encourage experimentation and learning while leading distributed/remote teams

· 
Present regularly to large internal audiences (~100+ engineers) and engage with senior stakeholders

· 
Drive adoption and ensure our tools bring real joy and value to developers

· 
Continuously explore how AI can enhance product discovery and delivery

 

Who are you?

 

We’re looking for a Product Owner with a strong technical background — not to code or configure systems themselves, but to confidently lead a highly technical team , facilitate technical discussions , and make informed decisions .

 

You will not be expected to build pipelines, write scripts, or deploy infrastructure hands-on.

Instead, your technical expertise will allow you to:

· 
Understand the complexity of the work the team is doing.

· 
Challenge solutions, ask the right questions, and remove blockers.

· 
Translate technical requirements into clear priorities and roadmaps.

· 
Communicate effectively with engineering, architecture, and security stakeholders.

· 
Balance speed, scalability, and quality to maximize developer experience impact.

 

 

Strong cross-functional navigation skills are essential. You will work across multiple functions and teams to align with broader Volvo Group strategies, influencing key stakeholders and keeping the direction clear while managing a fast-changing environment.

 

In short: You’ll be a product leader who speaks the language of engineers — but leads from a strategic, not operational position.

What’s in it for you?

At Volvo Group, we take care of our people — not just with great compensation and benefits, but by creating an environment where you can truly thrive.

· 
You’ll join a team that actually enjoys working together — where psychological safety and mutual respect are the norm, not the exception.

· 
You’ll get the chance to shape tools used by thousands of developers across Volvo, with global impact and visibility.

· 
Learning and growth aren’t buzzwords here — we invest in your development, whether that’s deepening your technical expertise or growing as a leader.

· 
Want to explore new tech, dive into AI use cases, or challenge the status quo? You’ll have the space — and support — to do just that.
