About HSI Skillko
Skillko, part of HSI, is revolutionising workplace safety and compliance through AI-powered training and workforce solutions. Our platform eliminates up to 90% of manual work in training processes for construction, utilities, and other high-compliance industries. We’re scaling fast across EMEA and are building a team passionate about transforming how organisations manage safety, skills, and compliance.
The Role
We are seeking a Product Owner to join our growing team. This role is critical to shaping how customer and market needs are translated into scalable, product-level solutions. You’ll partner closely with our Product Manager to define requirements, prioritise the backlog, and ensure the development team has the clarity they need to deliver high-quality, impactful features.
Unlike roles focused narrowly on individual customer requests, this position requires a product-level mindset—designing solutions that scale across our customer base and drive long-term product evolution. This is a great fit if you’re detail-oriented, confident engaging with customers, and thrive in a dynamic, startup-like environment.
