Christchurch, New Zealand Basis Full time

**About Us**

Are you looking for an opportunity to make a real difference in your next role?

Why? As a society, we need to decarbonise and accelerate the transition to alternative energy sources. Existing solutions are expensive and disparate, with limited functionality.

Basis is driven by purpose, real innovation, and ambition. We have a talented team spread across New Zealand, with a creative space by the beach in Takapuna, and a Design Lab in Christchurch where our physical products come to life.

We recently closer our Series A Capital Raise, so we're well-funded and ready to grow. Our team is smart, curious and has some big goals - so if you’re interested in joining a fast-growing and startup that is design-led and puts people at its core, then we’d love to hear from you

We're also currently in stealth mode, so check out our website and we'll share more with you during the recruitment process

**The Role**

We seek an experienced Product Owner to strengthen our product delivery squads in Software and Hardware teams. This is a senior role that calls for exceptional leadership and technical skills. Our small yet versatile team works with advanced electrical and mechanical concepts from design to build. In this role, you will navigate the complex landscape of embedded software and hardware development, guiding our teams to produce groundbreaking products.

We are not looking for someone to maintain the status quo but to improve and challenge our approach to product development and increase our squads' maturity. You will manage a challenging product backlog, liaising with various stakeholders and ensuring that our agile development practices align with our strategic objectives.

Some of the things that you might be involved in include:

- Owning and managing the product backlog
- Defining and communicating product requirements
- Facilitating agile development practices
- Driving squad productivity and velocity
- Liaising with stakeholders to ensure alignment with business objectives
- Providing leadership and direction for the Gen-1 product squads

If you're excited by the prospect of maximising the potential of both our software and hardware teams and bringing a cutting-edge product to market, then we would love to hear from you.

**About You**

We think you’ll be a fit for this role if you have the following:

- At least 5 years experience as a Product Owner managing squads in a complex, agile environment
- Strong leadership and project management skills
- Excellent communication and problem-solving abilities
- Proven ability to effectively manage product backlogs

Some nice to-haves include:

- Experience with embedded systems, IoT, and hardware

**Benefits**
- A competitive salary and employee share scheme (ESOP)
- A remote-first culture - work from home or come into the office, it's totally up to you
- Unlimited annual leave so that you can take the time that you need to re-energise
- Great new headphones when you join
- Flexible hours - we focus on effort and outcomes, so adjust your hours around your children, hobbies, or other commitments
- A schedule of fun team events throughout the year (ziplining, knife throwing, lawn games, what's next?)
- Office dogs
- A $200 one-off work from home payment
- Access to Clearhead, our wellbeing provider which gives you 5x free sessions with a psychologist per year
- The opportunity to learn and develop from some of the best and brightest minds in the industry

**Let's Talk**

We’d love to hear from you No need to submit a cover letter - just click 'apply' to answer a few short questions of ours (we find this gives us more insight) and attach your CV.
