About the VALD Product Team

At VALD, our Product team turns ideas and client feedback into reality. We work at the intersection of health, performance, and technology, building products that help professionals deliver better outcomes for their clients.

The team is split into two functions, Product Strategy and Engineering. We collaborate closely to deliver innovative, high-quality solutions.

About the role

We’re looking for a Product Owner to join our growing Product Strategy team. This is a unique opportunity to shape products that span Digital Health, Sports Science Technology and SAAS platforms into integrated solutions.

You’ll work closely with engineering and product teams to lead structured discovery efforts, maintain a prioritised backlog, and coordinate delivery across teams. While you won’t design technical solutions, you’ll need to understand technical constraints, engage confidently in technical discussions, and ensure business requirements are clear and actionable.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, can manage ambiguity, and is passionate about building products that make a real-world impact.

In this role, you will:

    • Lead product discovery to understand business needs, functionality gaps and user pain points
    • Translate insights into clear user requirements and acceptance criteria.
    • Maintain a prioritised backlog aligned with business priorities and strategy.
    • Facilitate agile ceremonies including planning, grooming and retrospectives.
    • Coordinate delivery across engineering and product teams to ensure predictable execution.
    • Contribute to technical discussions to support solution design.
    • Manage external requests and reduce distractions for delivery teams.
    • Align cross-team dependencies and unblock delivery.
    • Contribute to roadmap development and long-term planning.

      Is this you?

      • Experience as a Product Manager, Product Owner, Business Analyst, or similar, in a technology environment.
      • Comfortable engaging conversations with engineers to ensure technical decisions and trade-offs are well understood and appropriately weighed against business requirements and outcomes.
      • Strong understanding of Agile methodologies, backlog management and delivery tracking.
      • Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences.
      • Experiences in one or more of the following domains:
        • Digital Health (telehealth, remote monitoring, EHR integrations)
        • Sport Science Technology
        • SAAS platforms, cloud-native architectures, mobile app, ecosystems, and related concepts such as API-first design, identity management, authentication, and compliance frameworks
      • Ability to manage competing priorities and drive alignment across teams.
      • A growth mindset aligned with VALD's culture of continuous learning and development.

      We recognise that not all applicants will have the skills that match a job description exactly. VALD's best asset is not our technology, but our people and culture. We choose people based on how well we think they will work in the VALD team.

      If you’re passionate about building impactful products and want to be part of a team that values innovation and collaboration, we’d love to hear from you.
