Our products support complex business processes throughout the lifecycle of a finance or leasing contract, from quotation and pricing to contract management, billing, assets, services and integrations. \nWe are looking for our office in Porto for Product Owners who bring strong business domain knowledge and want to turn it into software that creates lasting value for our customers. You may already be a Product Owner, or be a business analyst or functional consultant ready to take the next step into product ownership. \nWhat the job is about \nWe are growing our Product team across several business domains, including Vehicle Catalogue, Finance, and Credit & KYC (Know Your Customer). Depending on your expertise and interests, you will take ownership within one of these domains, working closely with a Product Manager and a dedicated engineering team. \nWorking closely with the Product Manager, you translate the domain roadmap into a clear, prioritized backlog. You connect customers, implementation teams and engineering, balancing immediate customer commitments with improvements that can be reused across the global product. \nYour domain’s APIs are products in their own right. You understand who uses them, which problems they solve and how changes affect consumers. You work with engineers and architects on the technical details; your focus is the value, usability and continuity of the API product. \nWhat you will do \nTurn business problems and roadmap priorities into clear user stories, acceptance criteriaand achievable team objectives. \nOwn and refine the team backlog. Make transparent decisions about business value, urgency, scopeand dependencies. \nChallenge customer requests constructively and turn individual needs into reusable, configurable product capabilities. \nWork with developers, architectsand other domain teams to clarify requirements, resolve dependenciesand support delivery. \nValidate delivered functionality against agreed acceptance criteria and gather feedback from customers and internal stakeholders. \nInclude API consumer needs in product decisions, covering clear behaviour, documentation and the impact of changes. \nUse AI tools to support analysis, refinementand documentation, applying your domain judgement to validatetheir output. \nYour skills and interests \nYou bring strong business knowledge gained in finance, leasing, asset finance, asset management or a related environment. You understand complex business processes and can translate them into clear product requirements and priorities. Relevant domain expertise matters more to us than your current job title: we also welcome business analysts and functional consultants with the ambition and openness to coaching needed to grow into product ownership. \nExperience as a Product Owner, business analyst, functional consultant or in a comparable role connecting business needs with software delivery. \nThe ability to analysecomplex processes, structure requirementsand explain the business impact of a product decision. \nAn understanding of APIs as standalone products with their own consumers and lifecycle. Coding and deep technical API expertise are not required. \nExperience working with Agile teams, or the ability and motivation to develop your product ownership skills. SAFeexperience and PO certification are advantages. \nClear spoken and written English, enabling effective collaboration with international colleagues and customers. \nHow you work \nYou are curious and coachable: you ask thoughtful questions, welcome feedbackand translate it into changes in how you work. \nYou take ownership: you make timelydecisions, follow through on commitmentsand raise risks before they become delivery problems. \nYou build trust across business and engineering: you listen, adapt your explanation to your audienceand make decisions and trade-offs clear. \nYou combine customer empathy with product judgement: you understand the need behind a request and can explain why something should be prioritized, reshapedor deferred. \nYou bring structure to ambiguity: you distinguish facts from assumptions, identifywhat needs clarificationand help the team move forward. \nRoom to grow \nIf you bring strong domain expertise from a BA or functional consulting role, we value your ambition to become a Product Owner and your openness to coaching. Your scope will reflect your demonstrated product ownership capability. \nWhat is in it for you \nA competitive salary package. \nA meal allowance for each working day. \nFully covered private health insurance. \nHybrid working and flexible hours. \nA modern co-working space with a comfortable working environment. \nStructured onboarding with a dedicated coach to support you as you settle into your role. \nOngoing learning and opportunities for career development in an international, multicultural company. \nRegular opportunities to connect with colleagues through casual drinks, team activitiesand company events.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5169,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":["Company events","Health insurance","Hybrid work"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Portugal","iso":"PT","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Financial Software & Embedded Finance","Leasing, Auto & Equipment Finance"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-22T12:10:48Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":193,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-23T05:54:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/sofico-product-owner","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/sofico-product-owner.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-23T20:23:37Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1939,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-24T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":54460},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=54460"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsofico-product-owner"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsofico-product-owner"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsofico-product-owner"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/sofico-product-owner\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsofico-product-owner"}]}
