Senior Product Owner (m/f/d)

Do you want to lead challenging digital projects that are technically sound, financially viable, and fun to work on as a team? As a Senior Product Owner at punkt.de, you’ll ensure that client projects stay on track from a technical, financial, and interpersonal standpoint—and in doing so, you’ll strengthen our clients, your team, and punkt.de as a company.

As a Senior Product Owner, you’ll navigate with confidence between client projects, your team, and company goals.
You’ll develop digital solutions that deliver real added value—from the initial vision through the roadmap to ongoing operations.

Our projects are complex web and platform solutions based on TYPO3, Neos, or custom applications—typically long-term, technically challenging, and offering plenty of creative freedom.
