Zertificon Solutions – Software Manufacturer since 2004. We are IT security specialists: our products encrypt business communications. More than 25% of the 100 highest-revenue companies in Germany, as well as hundreds of medium-sized enterprises across all industries, already use our Z1 encryption solutions. We have big plans and continue to grow steadily. Nearly 140 employees are already working with us in Neukölln. Join our professional, highly qualified team: take on challenges, share your knowledge, learn new things, and discover your potential!
As a Junior Product Owner , you will contribute to the further development of our solutions for managing digital certificates – a key foundation for secure and encrypted business communication. Working closely with our Head of Product Certificate Business , you will help shape software components and services for managing and searching digital certificates, integrating external Certificate Authorities (CAs), and automating certificate-related processes.
You independently develop solution concepts for new and existing features, taking into account customer needs, technical feasibility, and business objectives. You collaborate with our UI/UX Designer to create user-friendly solutions and, when needed, develop smaller mockups yourself. You translate agreed solution concepts into actionable epics, tasks, and user stories with clear acceptance criteria for your development team.
You take ownership of maintaining and preparing your development team's product backlog and prioritize requirements in coordination with the Head of Product. You plan and coordinate software releases, keeping track of timelines, dependencies, and potential risks. As the main point of contact for your development team, you clarify functional questions and coordinate collaboration with Product Management, Support, and other stakeholders.
You analyze market trends and the competitive landscape, using your insights to identify opportunities for improving our products. At least one year of hands-on experience in Product Ownership, Requirements Engineering, or a comparable role, ideally in a B2B software environment. Basic knowledge of software development and agile methodologies. Ability to structure complex topics and translate them into clear, actionable requirements for developers.
Good technical understanding and an interest in software architectures, interfaces, and system integrations. Interest in IT security, digital certificates, and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) – prior knowledge in these areas is an advantage but not a requirement. Analytical, structured, and detail-oriented approach to work, combined with a strong willingness to learn. Ability to work independently, reliability, and enjoyment of collaborating with different teams.
