Position Overview

As a Product Owner at Curacity, you’ll play a pivotal role in helping the product and engineering teams execute efficiently, communicate clearly, and stay focused on delivering value. While this role is grounded in execution, backlog management, and sprint delivery, you’ll also be the connective tissue across internal teams—ensuring the right documentation, internal alignment, and trade-off decisions are surfaced effectively.

This is an ideal role for someone with 2–5 years of product management or equivalent experience looking to grow into a more strategic product thinker while mastering operational excellence.

What You’ll Do

• Own and Manage the Product Backlog - Write, refine, and prioritize clear, actionable user stories and acceptance criteria. Keep the backlog organized and up-to-date.
• Enable Internal Teams through Documentation - Create and maintain clear internal documentation for new features, product workflows, edge cases, and FAQs. Ensure go-to-market and support teams have the tools and knowledge needed to succeed.
• Clarify Technical Trade-offs and Complexity - Collaborate closely with engineering to understand the scope of technical work. Clearly articulate effort estimates, constraints, and trade-offs to product leadership to support prioritization.
• Coordinate Execution & Remove Friction - Work with the development team to keep sprint deliverables moving—clarifying open questions, resolving blockers, and keeping work flowing smoothly.
• Be a Signal Amplifier for the Product Org - Translate signals from internal users, stakeholders, or customer-facing teams into actionable insights. Identify friction points, communicate priorities, and surface edge cases early.

What You’ll Bring

• 2–5 years experience in a product management, project management, or business systems analyst role, ideally in a B2B or SaaS environment.
• Strong organizational and communication skills. You know how to translate business needs into structured, unambiguous tickets and updates—and can clearly express trade-offs and decisions.
• Track record of improving internal processes —whether in ticket hygiene, documentation practices, release coordination, or handoffs across functions.
• Comfort working with engineering on feasibility and technical trade-offs. You don’t need to code, but you ask smart questions and understand how systems work.
• Understanding internal teams —you’ve helped sales, account management, or support teams understand the "why" behind product changes and proactively equipped them with the right materials.
• A growth mindset and the desire to scale your product thinking beyond delivery mechanics.
• Education : Bachelor’s degree; equivalent hands-on experience in product management, technical project delivery, or systems analysis is equally valued.

Bonus Points

• Domain understanding - Experience in adtech, hospitality, or travel tech
• Familiarity with tools like Jira, Coda, Figma, or Notion, Google Analytics

Why Curacity?

You’ll join an award-winning, fast-growing team at the intersection of luxury travel and cutting-edge adtech, with the opportunity to shape the future of hospitality marketing.
