Nmbrs is growing. And with growth comes change, and with change comes
challenges. We want to offer you the challenge to be the Product Owner
for Squad Infra.
The Team
You will be part of our infra squad. Every squad is a self steering
team which takes full ownership of their part of the product. We are a
manager free environment and you will collaborate with your colleagues
to improve the product, prioritize your product backlog and improve the
teamwork.
Squad infra is responsible for the infrastructure Nmbrs is running
on. Currently it's hosted in a Dutch data center, but we are in the
middle of the migration to Azure (#amazing!)
We make sure the infrastructure is secure, stable and performative.
Next to that we own the CI/CD pipeline and the tooling and services
needed for the developers. We are not responsible for the internal
infrastructure of the Nmbrs offices (we bet this is an important
clarification for you :))
The Tools you’ll use:
Jira, Confluence, Slack, Zendesk, Loggly, Elmah, Retrace, Redgate, simpleKPI
Your Challenge
- Manage the backlog of Infra: you’ll need to prioritise together with the team what needs to be done.
- Listen to feedback and negotiate with stakeholders, and coordinate
the needs and the concerns of everyone. Use this information to improve
our methods and our product.
- Coordinate and contact infrastructure partners
- Be able to balance the new features and the maintenance needed to
the platform, and to balance the technical and business needs
- Be part of the day-to-day of your Squad and of the Product Council
- Understand the vision and the mission of Nmbrs and its impact on
defining what needs to be done. Understand this impact and energise the
team for this is also very important!
- Collaborate with the other teams to apply and improve
infrastructure guidelines and your squad members on solutions of new
projects
