Job Description

Driven by the passion to improve quality of people’s lives, WSA continues to grow as market leader in the hearing aid industry. With our commitment to increase penetration in an underserved hearing care market, we want to accelerate our business transformation in order to reach more people, more effectively.

We are evolving our product portfolio across all digital capabilities. As that portfolio grows, we need a Technical Product Manager who can connect business needs to technical delivery, ensuring the products we build are not only strategically aligned, but also practical, measurable, and well-adopted.

We are looking for a Technical Product Manager who can bridge the gap between business stakeholders and engineering teams. The Technical Product Manager will translate business, operational, and technical requirements into clear product priorities, release plans, and acceptance criteria and will drive the adoption and continuous improvement of the products we deliver.

What you will do?

You will work closely with Engineering Managers, Solution Architects, UX/UI Designers, QA, DevOps, business stakeholders, and leadership to shape the product direction and ensure delivery stays aligned to business outcomes.

In practice, that means you will turn strategic intent into a clear product roadmap, define well-scoped backlog items, and help the team build products that are useful, usable, and measurable.

Define and prioritise product direction

• Define and communicate the product vision aligned with business objectives.
• Maintain the product roadmap based on customer needs, market trends, and strategic priorities.

• Define product goals, success metrics, and release objectives.
• Prioritise the backlog using business value, customer impact, and technical feasibility.
• Balance short-term delivery with long-term product strategy.

Own delivery and adoption

• Own and manage the product backlog.
• Work closely with cross functional delivery teams to ensure requirements are clearly understood.
• Participate in sprint planning, backlog refinement, sprint reviews, and retrospectives.
• Collaborate with Product owners, Delivery leads, Engineering Managers and Solution Architects to plan releases.
• Support user acceptance testing, production readiness, and post-release adoption.

Product analytics

• Define and monitor key performance indicators.
• Analyse product performance using customer feedback, usage metrics, and business data.
• Make data-driven decisions for future enhancements.
• Track feature adoption, customer satisfaction, and business outcomes.

Collaborate across functions

• Build strong relationships with customers, business leaders, and cross-functional teams.
• Gather feedback through interviews, workshops, and product usage insights.
• Communicate product vision, roadmap, and release plans to stakeholders.
• Work closely with Engineering, Architecture, UX/UI, QA, DevOps, Cloud Infra, Marketing product teams, mobile app teams, program managers, business, Sales, Customer Success, and executive leadership.
• Ensure alignment across teams throughout the product lifecycle.
