Senior Product Owner – Twinfield Accounting

As a Senior Product Owner, you act as a product leader within the Twinfield Accounting domain, owning the vision, outcomes, and execution for a critical part of the product. You work closely with Product Management, Engineering, UX, and key business stakeholders to shape, prioritize, and deliver product initiatives that create measurable customer and business value.

You work with development teams based in the Netherlands (Hoevelaken) and Pune (India) and play a key role in aligning product strategy with execution across teams in a scaled Agile (SAFe) environment.

Product strategy & vision

Own and articulate the product vision and roadmap for your product area, aligned with Twinfield’s overall strategy. Translate strategic goals into multi-quarter roadmaps with clear outcomes and success criteria. Actively contribute to product strategy formation by identifying opportunities, risks, and trade-offs between business value, customer needs, regulatory constraints, and delivery capacity. Make and defend prioritization decisions in collaboration with Product Management and senior stakeholders.

Outcome-driven product ownership

Take end-to-end accountability for product outcomes, not just delivery. Define and track success metrics such as adoption, usage, customer satisfaction, retention, and operational efficiency. Use value-based prioritization to ensure the team is working on the highest-impact items. Validate assumptions and hypotheses after release and adjust direction based on measurable results.

Data, discovery & customer insight

Use product analytics, customer feedback, and market insights to guide decision-making. Combine qualitative inputs (customer interviews, usability findings) with quantitative data (usage metrics, experiments). Drive continuous discovery together with UX and stakeholders, ensuring solutions address real customer problems. Convert insights into clear backlog items, roadmap adjustments, and strategic recommendations.

Execution & Agile leadership (SAFe)

Own and maintain a well-structured, transparent, and prioritized team backlog. Write high-quality epics and user stories with clear acceptance criteria, working closely with UX and Business Analysts. Act as Product Owner within a SAFe Agile Release Train (ART):

Foster a strong product mindset within the team, focused on value, learning, and continuous improvement.

Stakeholder leadership & communication

Serve as the primary product contact for internal and external stakeholders. Influence and align senior stakeholders across business, technology, UX, compliance, and operations. Navigate conflicting priorities and drive decision-making with clarity and transparency. Ensure effective communication of product changes and outcomes to customers and internal audiences.

Domain & regulatory responsibility

Ensure that product decisions reflect accounting principles, regulatory requirements, and compliance constraints. Operate with a strong awareness of data sensitivity, security, and customer trust. Collaborate with legal, compliance, and domain experts to ensure solutions meet regulatory standards while remaining user-friendly.

You are a senior Product Owner and product leader who combines strategic thinking with hands-on execution. You are comfortable making decisions under uncertainty and taking ownership for outcomes. You communicate clearly at all levels of the organization and confidently challenge assumptions when needed.
