Technical Product Manager

About the role

Beep is seeking a Technical Product Manager to bridge the gap between Product and Engineering teams. Key responsibilities include backlog management, sprint execution, and release coordination.

Responsibilities

• Own and maintain the product backlog in Jira, managing, refining, and prioritizing epics, features, and tasks in alignment with the product roadmap
• Manage the product roadmap and epic structure, ensuring epics are well-defined, sequenced, and traceable to business objectives
• Closely partner with Engineering to map user stories to the correct epics and roadmap initiatives, maintaining alignment between product intent and development execution
• Facilitate backlog grooming sessions to keep the pipeline of work healthy and sprint-ready
• Drive sprint planning, daily standups, sprint reviews, and retrospectives; track sprint velocity, burndown, and team capacity to keep delivery predictable and sustainable
• Remove blockers and escalate issues early to keep development on track; hold the team accountable to Scrum ceremonies and Agile best practices
• Coordinate and manage the release process from development through staging to production; maintain release notes, changelogs, and version documentation
• Communicate release timelines, scope, and risks to stakeholders across the organization; create and maintain user-facing How-To guides and feature documentation to support adoption of new functionality
• Serve as the primary bridge between Product and Engineering, ensuring both sides have shared context and aligned expectations; translate technical constraints and trade-offs into language Product and business stakeholders can act on
• Proactively identify dependencies, risks, and scope changes; communicate these proactively to make informed decisions early
• Partner with QA, DevOps, and other technical teams to ensure smooth end-to-end delivery

Requirements

• 2–5 years of experience in a Product Manager, Product Owner, Scrum Master, or similar role within a software development environment
• Strong working proficiency in Jira—comfortable configuring boards, workflows, and dashboards, not just creating tickets
• Solid understanding of Agile methodology and Scrum framework; Scrum certification (CSM, PSM, or equivalent) required
• Technical fluency—you don’t need to write code, but you need to understand software development lifecycles, APIs, system architecture, and how engineering teams work
• Demonstrated ability to manage a product roadmap and epic hierarchy, with experience aligning engineering work to higher-level product goals
• Strong communication and facilitation skills; comfortable running ceremonies and navigating competing priorities between teams
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related technical field

• Experience managing releases in a production environment with multiple deployment targets is a plus
• Background in a fast-paced startup or high-growth company is a plus
• Experience using AI tools in day-to-day work, such as Claude or Claude Code, to improve productivity, streamline documentation, or assist with analysis is a plus

Skills

• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities
• Ability to prioritize and manage competing priorities
• Experience with agile methodologies and scrum framework
• Technical understanding of software development lifecycles, APIs, system architecture, and engineering processes
