Product Owner

About Us

We’re a fast-growing scale‑up that has been reshaping Swiss e-commerce for the past five years. Our focus is on community building, smart digital marketing, and targeted sales campaigns.

With Brands for Employees, we offer the leading employee benefits platform. With Brands for Students – Switzerland’s largest student platform – we reach over 200,000 students weekly. Together with Twint we run a large part of the so‑called Superdeals and recently we have partnered up with the largest insurance of the country to offer myAXA Deals.

With a team of 80 employees we generate mid‑double‑digit million CHF revenue and have grown by an average of 70% annually. We were awarded the SEF.Growth High Potential Label by the Swiss Economic Forum.

Your Mission

As a Product Owner you take hands‑on ownership of the day‑to‑day product delivery — from refining requirements to shipping features and ensuring quality. You work on both the external customer experience across our platforms (e.g. Brands for Employees, Brands for Students, MyAXA Deals) and the internal operational efficiency of our self‑developed ERP.

The strategic direction and product vision are set directly by our bCEO CIO /b — your role is to translate that vision into actionable work, own the backlog, and ensure the development team delivers with precision and impact. You collaborate closely with design, tech, and business teams to shape, translate, and deliver experiences that delight our users and drive business success.

What makes this role unique? You're not only responsible for what the customer sees — but also for shaping the systems and flows that make great customer experiences possible in the first place. And as you grow, you'll have the opportunity to take on more strategic responsibilities — with the potential to evolve into a bProduct Manager /b role in the long run.
