Technical Product Owner - Manufacturing Applications

Do you want to help shape the digital applications that support digital manufacturing at VELUX? As our new Technical Product Owner, you will connect manufacturing needs with solutions enabled by our top-tier Industrial IoT platform, turning business priorities into a clear roadmap and delivery-ready work—and helping drive our digitization journey.

Meet your future team

You will join our growing Industrial IoT Platform Team within the IT & Digital Enablement (IT&DE) department. We work closely with the Operations & Supply (O&S) organization to support the entire VELUX Group globally.

This role is a new addition to the team, and you will work alongside the Senior Technical Product Owner who is accountable for ensuring a common approach. You will connect IT and Supply and own an assigned area of manufacturing applications and capabilities within that framework. Your scope can evolve as portfolio priorities and the product model develop, contributing to VELUX’s continuous digitization journey.

What we offer

As Technical Product Owner, you will have the opportunity to shape your part of an evolving digital manufacturing application landscape. You will own the technical product direction, roadmap, backlog and day-to-day decisions, in close collaboration with the business, translating their needs and priorities into a clear, scalable and sustainable product path.

You will connect manufacturing needs with delivery-ready work for technical teams, helping establish a consistent product mindset across your scope. To make that work clear and actionable, you will establish and maintain product requirements, processes and guardrails that support development and delivery.

More specifically your tasks will be to:

• Own and continuously develop the technical product roadmap and backlog for your agreed area of digital manufacturing applications and capabilities.

• Turn incoming business needs into clearly defined problems and desired outcomes, then shape them into features with acceptance criteria. Keep the backlog structured and sufficiently refined for delivery teams to begin work, meeting the agreed Definition of Ready standards.

• Coordinate refinement and product preparation for sprint planning, make day-to-day prioritisation decisions within the agreed product direction, and escalate decisions outside your scope.

• Be the primary product contact for your assigned scope and coordinate dependencies across stakeholders and teams. Escalate cross-domain trade-offs, investment or capacity choices, and scope conflicts that need resolution beyond your remit.
• Keep manufacturing processes, applications, shared technology capabilities, integrations and deployment requirements aligned from end to end. Shape the roadmap around connected manufacturing needs rather than separate technology silos.

• Manage the technical capability lifecycle from prioritised business need and validation through delivery, operational feedback and continuous improvement, using agreed measures to inform product-quality and lifecycle decisions.

You can be based in Skjern, Østbirk, Kolding or Hørsholm. The role requires regular physical presence in Skjern and at manufacturing locations in Denmark, with occasional travel abroad. When tasks and projects allow, you can work from home up to 2 days per week.

What you will bring into the organization

You bring experience from product ownership, product management or a comparable business-facing role within digital manufacturing, including evolving or multi-product scopes.

You can collaborate with both business and technical colleagues to turn priorities into delivery-ready work, and you are ready to bring structure, accountability and product focus to a development organisation.

Moreover, we expect that you:

• Bring a deep understanding of manufacturing processes, including how operational applications, enterprise systems, machine integration and data interact. Broader knowledge of digital manufacturing landscapes is an advantage.

• Can create product roadmaps, structure complex demand, and translate desired outcomes into delivery-ready features and backlogs.

• Take a disciplined, outcome-oriented approach to product ownership, establishing and maintaining clear product requirements, processes and decision guardrails. Balance standardization and short-term delivery needs with long-term product integrity.
• Have experience working in a complex matrix organisation, using stakeholder collaboration, clear communication and sound decision-making to align colleagues across organisational boundaries.

• Have the technical fluency to collaborate credibly with architects, technical leads and engineering teams.
