Location: North Sydney (Hybrid)

Role Type: 12-Month Contract

Level: Senior / Lead

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced, technically fluent Digital Product Manager to lead the evolution of our industry-critical digital assurance platform.

This is a unique chance to own a mature, widely used digital product that enables primary producers and industry stakeholders across Australia to demonstrate compliance with rigorous food safety, welfare, and environmental management standards.

As the product enters a major transformation phase, including a scheduled re-platforming and deeper integration across core data systems, you will balance operational continuity for existing users with strategic modernisations.

Key Responsibilities

- Vision & Strategy: Formulate and communicate the 12-month product vision, co-creating quarterly OKRs and maintaining a outcome-focused roadmap aligned with broader organizational goals.
- Continuous Discovery: Lead discovery sprints and commission UX/market research to deeply understand user needs, synthesising insights to continuously improve user effort metrics and platform adoption.
- Technical Collaboration & Re-platforming: Work closely with Enterprise Architects, Data Leads, and Engineering teams to evaluate platform architecture, manage API/data integration constraints, and lead technical re-platforming initiatives.
- Backlog & Delivery Management: Prioritise and manage an outcome-linked backlog in Jira. Define user stories, review acceptance criteria, participate in Scrum ceremonies, and control scope during active delivery sprints.




- Governance & Prioritisation: Serve as the central prioritisation gatekeeper, managing intake transparently, communicating trade-offs to internal and external stakeholders, and driving release readiness.
- Product Measurement: Monitor post-release production metrics, maintain operational reporting, and close the hypothesis-to-outcome loop using data-driven insights.

What We’re Looking For

- Experience: 7–10+ years in digital product management with full lifecycle accountability.
- Technical Fluency: A strong technical background (e.g., Computer Science/IT degree or previous hands-on engineering/architecture experience). You can credibly discuss API design, system integration, technical debt, and architecture trade-offs with engineering teams.
- Platform Migration Expertise: Proven track record guiding mature products through complex technical re-platforming or enterprise software migrations.
- Agile Mastery: Hands-on experience directing Scrum squads, writing clear acceptance criteria, and leveraging the Atlassian suite (Jira, Confluence).
- Stakeholder Management: Exceptional communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical realities into business value for executive leaders, operational teams, and regulatory bodies.

Desirable:

- Background in AgTech, regulatory compliance platforms, or audit/accreditation systems.
- Experience designing digital products for low-digital-literacy user bases or regional/remote populations.
