Amsterdam - Services

Product Manager

Located in Amsterdam, our EMEA HQ offices are a stone's throw away from the beautiful NEMO Science Museum, and the Amsterdam Central train station. Famous for its breathtaking architecture, canals, and over 881,000 bikes, Amsterdam is a city that's easy to fall in love with.

As a Product Manager at Backbase, you take ownership of the entire lifecycle of certain features and components: all through Discovery, Design, Development to ultimately Launch. In short - you focus on defining good feature strategies, executing against those features perfectly, and at all times make sure that what your teams delivery actually deliver value for users, Backbase customers and/or Backbase itself.

Although you are the owner and hold the accountability, at this level we expect the guidance of and collaboration with more senior PMs and Engineering Managers to be high. That being said, you have several years of experience and are a professional and independent worker. This means that you are comfortable working with your team and you understand and are able to navigate team goals and dynamics.

At Backbase you develop your PM capabilities across these 4 main domains which are heavily emphasized towards product execution:

Working with the team (providing direction and guardrails)

Working with the process (methodology, execution and decision making)

Working with the product (visioning/ideation & measuring success)

Working with people (stakeholder relations, coordination & collaboration)

What you'll do

Your focus lies in finding solutions to (predetermined) problems inside the product line within your Value Stream. You however have the responsibility to clearly indicate what you and your squad are trying to achieve with your products. You are also able to define what success looks like. Critical will be measuring the squads' progress towards goals and milestones with e.g. burn down and burn up charts managed by the EMs. You also possess the skills to measure whether you're achieving the intended impact of the product or feature you are delivering.

By collaborating with product leadership in your Value Stream, you understand the strategic objectives and play an active part in their translation towards tangible, iterative and valuable deliveries in your product. You work in smaller, more clearly defined product areas in close collaboration with your Engineering Managers, Designers, Scrum Masters and Engineers.
