About us

At Team Rockstars IT, we have been a pioneer in the IT world since 2015. We are one of the largest developers communities in software development, cloud, data and security in the Netherlands with a team of 650+ talented IT professionals. But we are not only focused on growth, we are creating a new future for IT. We do this through our people-first philosophy and unique approach to developing and engaging talent. Based on our philosophy of “Disrupt the world of working with happiness,” we launched a completely new way of working in 2015, completely tailored to the needs of the IT professionals who will define the world of tomorrow!

With clients in the enterprise world (Rabobank, Tennet, ABN AMRO, Alliander and ASML) and mid-size clients (such as Zwijsen, KorsIT, Kiwa), we make an impact on issues in digitalization, compliancy and sourcing policy. We believe in creating an environment where tech and culture maximize each other and work happiness and entrepreneurship reinforce each other. We are looking for someone who not only shares our philosophy, but ensures that we help research what challenges clients have, build propositions and can realize a plan of action for execution.

  • Minimum 3 years experience as a product owner or similar role.
  • Excellent agile knowledge and experience with frameworks such as scrum, Kanban or SAFe.
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
