Company Overview
BotCity is building the future of automation with the Governance Platform for Python automations and AI Agents.

Our philosophy is simple: automation is software, and software deserves the same high-code standards that drive innovation in AI and machine learning.
We recently raised a $12M Series A, led by Four Rivers with participation from Y Combinator, SoftBank, and top industry leaders such as Lew Cirne (New Relic), Rod Johnson (SpringSource), and Walter Kortschak (Summit Partners | Firestreak Ventures). With 1,000+ customers in 70+ countries, including Bayer and LG, and recognition by G2 (2024) as one of the world’s top 25 emerging platforms, BotCity is scaling fast.
We’re a global remote company with teams across the US and LATAM, united by a shared vision to redefine how enterprises build and manage automation. If you’re looking for an environment that values impact, autonomy, and excellence, we’d love for you to join us on this journey.
Role Overview
The Product Owner will drive the execution of BotCity's Orchestrator product, turning strategic direction into a clear, well-prioritized roadmap that strengthens its market leadership and supports its continued growth. This professional will keep a healthy, prioritized backlog, make sure the squad delivers working software every sprint, and lead ongoing improvements to delivery speed, predictability and quality using meaningful metrics. BotCity is looking for a data-driven product professional who is comfortable with ambiguity in a startup setting, cares deeply about delivery quality, and takes full ownership of what ships, earning engineers' trust through clarity and follow-through. The role reports to the Product Manager.
Responsibilities
- Own Orchestrator’s product backlog end-to-end - grooming, prioritization, dependency management, and sprint readiness.
- Ensure 100% of items entering a sprint have clearly defined acceptance criteria, eliminating rework caused by scope ambiguity.
- Frame backlog items as testable hypotheses where appropriate, keeping delivery connected to
- Orchestrator's product goals.
- Lead sprint ceremonies (planning, refinement, review, and retrospectives), adapting agile practices pragmatically to what the team actually needs.
- Translate strategic direction into clear, well-scoped stories, asking the right clarifying questions upfront to prevent rework downstream.
- Proactively initiate and structure discovery work every sprint cycle (user feedback synthesis, assumption mapping, delivery retrospectives), and bring evidence-based recommendations.
- Act as the primary point of contact for requirement clarification during development, unblocking engineers quickly and protecting sprint integrity.
- Define, monitor, and report on delivery health KPIs through Jira, including sprint predictability, defect leakage, and cycle time, giving the BotCity continuous visibility into Orchestrator’s delivery quality.
- Contribute actively to roadmap and product direction conversations, bringing a grounded, delivery-informed perspective to strategic discussions.
