Scrum Product Owner


A Scrum Product Owner is responsible for defining and managing the work that a software development team completes during a project. They act as the bridge between business goals and the development team, ensuring that the final product delivers the most value.

In the Scrum framework, the Product Owner maintains the product backlog—a prioritized list of features, fixes, and tasks that represent the product’s scope. This role requires strong collaboration with stakeholders to gather requirements and to ensure the team understands what needs to be built and why. Product Owners frequently participate in meetings, such as sprint planning, reviews, and daily stand-ups, to help steer the project. They do not manage the team but guide the “what” and “why” behind each task, leaving the “how” to the development team.
