Product Owner

Schneider Electric is a global leader in energy management and automation, helping customers build more efficient, resilient, and sustainable operations. Our digital product teams supporting the Sustainability Business create and support applications that improve business processes, enable better decisions, and deliver meaningful value across the enterprise. If you're energized by building and evolving modern, scalable software products and fluent in leveraging AI to accelerate product innovation, this is an opportunity to help shape the next generation of enterprise solutions. We are looking for a Product Owner who takes full ownership of moving high-value work from definition through delivery, providing leadership, decisive judgment, and strong partnership across business and technical teams.

What will you do? Own the definition, prioritization, and delivery of product capabilities for an assigned digital application or product area. Serve as the primary point of accountability for product priorities, delivery coordination, and day-to-day follow-through within your scope. Partner with business stakeholders to influence roadmap direction and translate strategy into executable work. Manage stakeholder engagement and maintain alignment on priorities, scope, timing, and delivery decisions. Translate business needs, workflow gaps, and operational issues into clear requirements and actionable work. Collaborate closely with technical teams, including engineers, developers, analysts, testers, and vendors, to move work from definition through delivery. Maintain a clear backlog and ensure work is sequenced based on business value, dependencies, and operational need. Drive tradeoff discussions when scope, sequencing, or solution direction requires a decision. Help define acceptance criteria, validation needs, and release readiness expectations. Support operational stability by helping triage issues, coordinate resolution, and monitor product performance. Work through ambiguous problem spaces with strong judgment, surfacing gaps, risks, and dependencies early. Use AI-enabled tools and modern productivity methods to accelerate synthesis, analysis, documentation, and preparation. Continuously improve product workflows, documentation, and ways of working to improve speed, clarity, and execution. Help improve the quality and consistency of product definition across the team.

What qualifications will make you successful? Three to five years of experience in product ownership, application ownership, business analysis in a product environment, or a related digital delivery role. Strong stakeholder management, communication, and facilitation skills. Demonstrated ability to prioritize competing demands and make sound tradeoff recommendations. Experience coordinating with technical teams, vendors, or delivery partners. Ability to work in ambiguous environments and help define next steps with clarity and speed. Comfort supporting application delivery, operational stability, and continuous improvement. Strong written communication skills with the ability to produce clear roadmaps, requirements, acceptance criteria, and supporting documentation. Familiarity with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or similar, and a willingness to use them to improve speed and quality. Curiosity and discipline in using modern tools and methods to improve product execution. Familiarity with Agile or iterative delivery methods. Experience in enterprise software, workflow-heavy environments, or custom-built applications preferred.

What's in it for you? The opportunity to own a high-impact digital product with real visibility and meaningful business outcomes. A role that sits at the center of business, technology, and delivery execution. The chance to shape how a product is defined, delivered, supported, and improved over time. Exposure to a fast-moving environment where judgment, speed, and clarity matter. The ability to use AI and modern tools as part of your everyday workflow. Direct partnership with business stakeholders and technical teams. An opportunity to help strengthen and scale the Product Owner operating model. Room to influence how product ownership is practiced across the team. The chance to work on important capabilities that support real business operations and outcomes.
