We promote collaboration both virtually and in person, this role can be based from any of our hubs in Barcelona, Amsterdam or London.
The impact you’ll make :
The albelli Photobox group currently has 4 apps available to customers across Europe, each with unique strengths. Following the recent albelli and Photobox merger, we’re working on a multi-year program to bring the best of each app into a single market leading app.

What you’ll be responsible for as a Technical Product Manager at albelli-Photobox Group
You are responsible for the two closely connected teams within the Transformation Domain. Our Group Orchestration team is responsible for the middleware layer that links our customer facing experiences to our backend services and our Editor API team owns a large portion of the services that power our web and app digital editor offerings.
Given the interconnected nature of the teams, you will be working very closely with most of the other teams / domains in the company and as such, exceptional communication and collaboration skills are essential.
In your first few months, you will :
- Deep dive into the vision for the Company, the Product and Tech function and the App Domain that your teams will help to enable.
- Build out a compelling backlog that supports the App domain’s vision, while balancing the technical health of your services and the efficiency of the teams.
- Work cross functionally with the App Product Managers, Technology and Design teams to challenge your plans, identify constraints and ensure cross functional alignment.
- Work closely with the Transformation domain’s Engineering Manager to challenge and optimise your team's ways of working.

- You are passionate about clarity. You are robust in your thinking and push to fully understand a situation before confidently leading progress towards a solution.
- You are respected for your proactive communication, which prevents your teams from becoming siloed from other teams and functions across the organisation.
