Technical Product Owner

Command Alkon•Dallas, TX

About The Position

A successful Technical Product Owner at Command Alkon brings clarity to complex problems and speed to execution. You act as the single source of truth for your Scrum team. You translate customer needs and technical constraints into clear, testable user stories and help the team move from concept to validated solution quickly. You actively use AI tools to think faster, prototype ideas, validate technical feasibility, and reduce friction between business and engineering. You do not replace judgment with AI. You amplify it. This role goes beyond standard Product Owner responsibilities by intentionally using AI tools to increase speed, clarity, and technical depth. AI is a core part of daily work. The Product Owner uses tools like ChatGPT, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot to draft, refine, validate, prototype, and stress-test product ideas. Stronger technical fluency is expected. This role stays closer to the code, architecture, and system behavior than a traditional PO. Ideas move from concept to validated solution more quickly through rapid prototypes and technical experimentation. Expectations are higher for backlog readiness, solution feasibility, and delivery quality.
