Job description
Who are we?
We are Nixon Digital, a startup located in Alkmaar. At Nixon, we have big goals and believe there is huge potential in the market. We are looking for talented people to join our team and help us take advantage of the opportunities ahead as we work towards growth.
Our platform helps companies better manage their website portfolio, making us an important partner in ensuring privacy and security compliance. As a startup, we are constantly developing and improving everything we do.
What do we do
We have developed a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that helps companies get a better grip on their complex digital landscape. How? By taking charge of their website portfolio and making it more practical. For instance, we help them check if their website has a privacy policy or if SSL certificates are up to date. We are a young startup, but we are scaling rapidly and continually developing our platform to help our clients develop their digital maturity.
What are you going to do?
We are looking for a Product Owner who is enthusiastic about working in a dynamic and fast-paced digital landscape. Our team is expanding quickly, and our client base is growing, so we are looking for talented individuals to join us. As an intern, we do not expect you to have five years of experience, but we do require someone with a “getting things done” mentality and a strong desire to learn.
As a Product Owner, you function as a bridge between customers with high demand and the teams responsible for incrementally delivering successful new features / releases of our product / platform. Working closely with the team, you will prioritize items off your backlog to maximize value for our clients. To ensure the team understands your decisions, it is critical to articulate your goals and vision every sprint and keep both the client and the team happy. You will work alongside our Scrum Master, Developers, and Designer. You will also learn how to create stories. It is your responsibility to ensure that the ideas and thoughts of the Nixon founders are transformed into use-cases and roadmaps for the coming years.

Why work at Nixon Digital
- We are a start-up that is growing quickly, and we are looking for the right people to join us. If you enjoy working with us and show us what you are capable of, there will be opportunities for a longer stay.
