As a valued member of our team focused on making a positive impact, your unique contributions play a significant role in creating
meaningful change. Working alongside a talented group of colleagues, you will experience a supportive environment that recognizes
and values your life beyond the confines of work.
We are looking for a Software Product Owner to own the direction, quality, prioritisation, and execution of our software tooling
ecosystem, with a primary focus on SDKs, evaluation kits (EVKs), developer tools, and supporting software applications.
This role sits at the intersection of customers, Applications, Product Management, and Software Engineering. You will act as the
voice of the user, ensuring our software tools solve real customer problems while enabling engineering teams to deliver
high-quality releases efficiently.
You will be responsible for translating customer feedback, business priorities, and technical requirements into a clear product
roadmap and well-prioritised backlog.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone with a software engineering background who has moved into product ownership, technical
project management, or software delivery leadership.
At Innatera, you’ll be part of a pioneering team building the next generation of brain-inspired processors for edge AI. Your work
will help bring groundbreaking technology to life, powering intelligent devices with real-world impact, from healthcare to
consumer electronics.
