Role Description
TechPods is a British-Bulgarian-owned and managed technology co-sourcing company based in Sofia, Bulgaria. Unlike traditional IT outsourcing companies, our fully transparent model enables companies to scale quicker, while mitigating risk and reducing costs. We strongly believe that traditional outsourcing is obsolete, and the key to long-term success is co-sourcing, not outsourcing.
We are currently hiring a Product Owner for our Germany-based cybersecurity partner that protects the real world against digital threats. They offer a certified Security-as-a-Service platform for protecting digital business processes. The product monitors, analyses, and filters malicious internet traffic before virtual attacks can do any real harm. The technological basis for this is provided by tailor-made system solutions that must work flawlessly and be continuously optimised and expanded.
