Job Summary

AI2IO is seeking a Product Owner to own the day-to-day product and delivery operating model for an Engineering Tools software development team. You will partner with engineers, designers, QA specialists, project managers, AEC practitioners, client-facing teams, and business stakeholders to discover meaningful architecture, engineering, and construction workflow problems, define valuable solutions, prioritize work, facilitate Agile delivery, and validate outcomes.

This role combines product ownership, requirements analysis, Agile facilitation, delivery coordination, and practical AEC knowledge. Project Managers own roadmap updates and integrated delivery coordination, Client Success Managers assist with stakeholder communication, and Product Adoption & Training partners own documentation, training, and adoption support. The Product Owner serves as the central source of product context, decisions, priorities, requirements, and outcome validation for the assigned Engineering Tools team.

Essential Functions

This role combines hands-on product ownership with practical AEC workflow knowledge and increasing responsibility for discovery, prioritization, Agile team facilitation, cross-functional coordination, and delivery effectiveness.

Own Product Direction & Priorities

• Own backlog prioritization and work readiness for an assigned software delivery team.

• Collaborate with AEC practitioners, users, stakeholders, and others to understand workflow needs and desired outcomes.

• Translate AEC terminology, discipline-specific workflows, model and project-data needs, and business problems into actionable product work.

• Evaluate competing priorities, risks, dependencies, and delivery constraints.

• Ensure delivered work aligns with product goals, user needs, and representative AEC workflows.

Lead Discovery & Requirements Development

• Facilitate focused discovery sessions with AEC practitioners, stakeholders, users, and subject-matter experts.

• Create AEC workflows, user stories, business rules, acceptance criteria, and supporting requirements.

• Identify assumptions, dependencies, model and project-data impacts, interoperability risks, and edge cases early.

• Help the team understand the problem before committing to a solution.

• Validate proposed solutions against intended outcomes.

Facilitate Agile Delivery

• Facilitate Agile team ceremonies and maintain a healthy delivery process.

• Help the team remove blockers and resolve delivery issues.

• Promote continuous improvement through retrospectives and delivery feedback.

• Maintain visibility into team priorities, commitments, dependencies, and risks.

• Improve predictability, transparency, and team effectiveness.

Coordinate Across Teams & Functions

• Partner with Product Design, QA, Engineering, Client Success, Product Adoption & Training, and Project Management.

• Align stakeholders around product decisions and delivery priorities.

• Coordinate dependencies, AEC workflow impacts, and data or interoperability considerations affecting delivery outcomes.

• Ensure handoffs remain clear and product intent remains consistent throughout implementation.

Validate Outcomes

• Participate in release-readiness activities.

• Validate delivered functionality against approved requirements and representative AEC workflows.

• Gather feedback after release and incorporate learning into future priorities.

• Help ensure completed work achieves meaningful user and business outcomes.

Grow Your Product Leadership Capability

• Take on increasingly complex initiatives involving multiple AEC disciplines, stakeholders, workflows, integrations, data exchanges, and business processes.

• Develop stronger prioritization, facilitation, discovery, and delivery-leadership skills.

• Build readiness for future advancement into Senior Product Owner, Product Management, or Solution Delivery leadership opportunities as ai2io continues to grow.
