Job Description

About HSI Skillko

Skillko, part of HSI, is revolutionising workplace safety and compliance through AI-powered training and workforce solutions. Our platform eliminates up to 90% of manual work in training processes for construction, utilities, and other high-compliance industries. We're scaling fast across EMEA and are building a team passionate about transforming how organisations manage safety, skills, and compliance.

The Role

We are seeking a

Product Owner

to join our growing team. This role is critical to shaping how customer and market needs are translated into scalable, product-level solutions. You'll partner closely with our Product Manager to define requirements, prioritise the backlog, and ensure the development team has the clarity they need to deliver high-quality, impactful features.


Unlike roles focused narrowly on individual customer requests, this position requires a product-level mindset--designing solutions that scale across our customer base and drive long-term product evolution. This is a great fit if you're detail-oriented, confident engaging with customers, and thrive in a dynamic, startup-like environment.

Location:

Remote - Candidate must be based in Ireland or UK

Key Responsibilities:

Conduct research on customer use cases and analyse industry trends to inform product strategy and solution design. Participate in customer kickoff and scoping meetings, particularly with small-to-mid market clients. Produce clear scope documents and validate feasibility through proof-of-concepts. Translate requirements into developer-ready deliverables (user stories, acceptance criteria, documentation). Act as a bridge between customers, product, and development teams -- ensuring clarity, alignment, and reduced rework. Test and validate solutions to ensure functionality, performance, and quality before release. Maintain and prioritise a backlog of features, enhancements, and user feedback in alignment with product strategy. Create and maintain comprehensive documentation (installation guides, user guides, technical specifications). Collaborate with cross-functional teams including Sales, Customer Support, Implementation, and Marketing to ensure successful adoption. Support and implement integrations with third-party technology partners. Stay current with best practices in SaaS and AI, seeking opportunities to improve processes and solutions.
