Associate Product Owner - UK

Due to further expansion, we are seeking a Associate Product Owner to help us to continue to dominate one of the most buoyant, fastest-growing industries, that is changing the world and the speed at which we receive items.

What we do

LineTen builds software that helps restaurants retail their products online. Here’s how we do it:

• We build and maintain integrations to “Delivery Apps” like UberEats and Talabat + Point of Sale systems like Oracle and Toast
• We build and operate online ordering websites so clients can offer proprietary click and collect, curbside, and click and deliver journeys
• We have a number of related features to make it as easy as possible to get the most out of retailing ready to eat food online.

Why work with us?

• We Are a Home-First Team: LineTen is committed to our home-first policy, which means that we honour remote working first, and offer office space in London, England and Porto, Portugal.
• We Believe in Having Fun: Our WellUs team organises monthly events like Pet Zoom Calls, 45-minute Yoga classes, and after-hours cocktail lessons.
• We Want You to Take a Break: We believe it is the quality of work that matters, not the hours spent “on the clock”. We offer flexible working hours and unlimited vacation.
• We Work in Teams: We work in teams rather than as individuals. Some teams, like our Product Teams, have agile ceremonies such as standups and sprint planning.
• We Pitch Our Ideas: We independently sketch ideas then come to team discussions with prototypes instead of trying to reach consensus through extended discussion.
• We Challenge Norms: We don’t want to be typical. We believe in challenging the status quo. We encourage our teammates to make their jobs their own.
