Junior Product Owner – Maternity

Description

Help shape digital products that support maternity care.

We’re looking for a Junior Product Owner, known internally as Associate Product Owner, to support the development and delivery of our maternity product backlog.

This is an opportunity to build your product career while developing specialist knowledge of digital maternity services and BadgerNet. You’ll work closely with Product Owners, clinicians, Engineering and other stakeholders to understand real maternity workflows and turn those needs into clear, actionable product requirements.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll help make sure the product backlog is well understood, documented and ready for delivery. Your responsibilities will include:

• Gathering input from clinical, customer and product stakeholders.
• Drafting user stories, acceptance criteria and supporting requirements.
• Developing your understanding of antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal workflows.
• Supporting backlog refinement and sprint preparation.
• Working with clinical subject matter experts to represent maternity requirements accurately.
• Tracking questions and clarifications from Engineering and escalating blockers promptly.
• Maintaining release notes, product documentation and delivery records.
• Supporting testing, show-and-tell sessions and release preparation.
• Considering clinical safety, usability, interoperability and regulatory needs when preparing requirements.
• Using approved AI tools responsibly to improve the quality and efficiency of research and documentation.

What we’re looking for

You’ll bring strong written communication, attention to detail and an organised approach. You’ll be comfortable listening to different perspectives, asking clear questions and working collaboratively when requirements are still evolving.

You’ll ideally have:

• Experience supporting a software, product, project or delivery team.
• Some exposure to agile delivery, backlog refinement or software development.
• Experience preparing requirements, documentation or release materials.
• Confidence working with technical, product or operational stakeholders.
• A willingness to develop your knowledge of digital maternity care.

Experience in healthcare, maternity, NHS services, clinical software, Jira or Aha! would be useful, but is not essential.

Why join us?

At System C, our work is focused on technology that connects and transforms health and care. You’ll join a supportive environment where learning, continuous improvement, collaboration, personal ownership and doing the right thing matter. Professional development is actively encouraged, with opportunities ranging from on-the-job learning to formal training.
