In short, we love creating value for our customers by solving difficult problems. As of now, Camlin operates in over 20 countries worldwide.\nOverview\nWe are seeking a Software Product Owner with experience in IoT device environments to lead the definition, prioritisation, and delivery of embedded software and system-level capabilities across our IoT device portfolio. This role focuses on end-to-end product ownership for device-sidesoftware that enables highly reliable, secure, and scalable IoT products.\nSuccess in this role requires a good understanding of IoT device architectures, embedded technology stacks and communication protocols. You will work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure features are well defined, technically viable, and aligned with both customer and business needs.\nWhat to Expect Day to Day\nThe Software Product Owner plays an important role within the Agile software development team. While not a product manager in the traditional sense, the successful candidate will manage the backlog of requirements from all stakeholders and through planning, coordination, communication and facilitation take responsibility to deliver quality software providing maximum business value.\nKey Responsibilities\nProduct Ownership & Strategy\n· Own and refine the product vision and roadmap for device-side software and embedded capabilities.\n· Evaluate and prioritise features and technical enhancements that relate to device performance, networking, security, maintainability, power management, protocol support, and system reliability.\nRequirements & Backlog Management\n· Translate customer and stakeholder use cases and requirements into clear and technically informed user stories suitable for embedded and systems engineering teams.\n· Apply Behaviour-Driven Development practices, writing acceptance criteria in business-oriented, testable formats to improve clarity and verification.\n· Work with product management to create mock-ups, user flows, and interaction designs for device-side GUI interfaces.\n· Work with engineers to break down complex system-level behaviour into implementable tasks and validate feasibility within device constraints.\n· Maintain a well-structured backlog that reflects both customer value and technical necessity, including refactoring, platform improvements, and architecture work\nCross-Functional Collaboration\n· Partner with firmware, embedded Linux and hardware engineering teams to ensure clarity of requirements and alignment with architectural constraints.\n· Collaborate with cloud, mobile, and data platform teams to ensure end-to-end feature coherence across the IoT ecosystem.\n· Coordinate technical discovery and research activities, including proof-of-concept builds, protocol evaluations, and integration testing.\nDelivery & Quality\n· Participate in and lead Agile ceremonies with a strong focus on delivery.\n· Validate acceptance criteria and product features through user acceptance testing.\n· Ensure device software releases meet reliability, security, and performance expectations, and support release planning for field deployments\nEssential Criteria:\nDegree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, or similar field.\nStrong experience delivering end-to-end IoT devices across embedded systems, industrial hardware, and device-focused software.\nSolid understanding of device software and firmware lifecycles, diagnostics, observability, OTA updates, and supporting both current and future hardware.\nHands-on collaboration with specialist engineering teams (DSP, FPGA, firmware, electronics, platform, applications) to ensure smooth system integration.\nAbility to unite domain experts at key integration points, resolving interface issues early and reducing technical risk.\nSkilled at managing technical critical paths across multiple device and platform projects, identifying dependencies and system constraints to drive predictable delivery.\nDeep knowledge of Linux-based, embedded, and real-time environments, including boot flows, hardware-software interactions, and field operating conditions.\nExpertise in IoT protocols such as MQTT, CoAP, TCP/IP, BLE, LoRa, Wi-Fi, and cellular, with an understanding of their impact on architecture and performance.\nStrong ability to turn complex device behaviours into clear requirements, epics, and user stories for efficient backlog management.\nProficient in reading and creating system architecture artefacts-data flows, component diagrams, deployment models, sequence diagrams, and HW/SW interaction maps.\nExperienced in Agile delivery with embedded/firmware teams, including prioritisation, iterative planning, and managing risks across multiple workstreams.\nExcellent communicator able to engage effectively with engineering, product, leadership, customers, and operations.\nFluent in written and spoken English, able to explain technical detail clearly to mixed audiences.\nOur Values\nWe work together\nWe believe in people\nWe won’t accept the ‘way it has always been done’\nWe listen to learn\nWe’re trying to do the right thing\nEqual Employment Opportunity Statement\nIndividuals seeking employment at Camlin are considered without regards to race, colour, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital states, ancestry, physical or mental disability, gender identity or sexual orientation.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5747,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All
