REQUIRED EXPERIENCE

Experience leading the full product discovery and delivery process in an agile/scrum environment as a Product Owner
Solid background in managing product backlogs, writing epics, user stories, and acceptance criteria
Proven ability to work with data: defining metrics, interpreting analytics, running experiments, and making data-driven decisions
Experience collaborating closely with engineering teams, including technical scoping and trade-off discussions
Experience working alongside or embedded with marketing and/or sales teams to support go-to-market execution

Strong analytical skills: comfortable with large datasets, dashboards, and analytics platforms (e.g., Amplitude, Tableau, Looker, BigQuery)
Stakeholder management: ability to influence without authority, align diverse internal and external stakeholders, and communicate trade-offs clearly to leadership
Technical fluency: solid understanding of APIs, backend systems, webhooks, and data pipelines; able to collaborate effectively with engineering on platform architecture decisions
Excellent written and verbal communication: clear documentation, strong presentation skills, and ability to synthesize complex information for varied audiences
A/B testing & experimentation: experience designing and interpreting experiments to drive iterative improvements
Agile/Scrum proficiency: experience leading sprint ceremonies, backlog grooming, and release planning as a Product Owner
Self-starter mindset: comfortable operating with high autonomy in a fast-paced, ambiguous, globally distributed environment
NICE TO HAVE
Experience with other LiveOps management platforms such as PlayFab, Heroic Labs, or Balancy
Background in gaming, entertainment, or subscription-based digital products
Familiarity with CRM, push notification systems, loyalty programs, or dynamic content delivery pipelines
Experience working in a multi-product or platform environment serving internal customers or external partners (studios, publishers)
Product Owner certification (CSPO, SAFe PO/PM, or equivalent)
WHO YOU ARE
You are a seasoned product professional who understands that great LiveOps platforms are the engine behind great player experiences. You don't just manage a backlog — you own a product with conviction and a clear point of view. You are equally comfortable diving deep into data as you are aligning stakeholders on a long-term vision.
You are not a game designer or game producer. You are a Product Manager who happens to have deep expertise in the LiveOps space and understands what studios need to operate live games effectively — and that distinction matters to us at Xsolla.
