Product Owner

It’s an exciting time to work at Hive Streaming! We have been growing over 100% every year in the last four years and in October 2020, we were recognized as SaaS company of the year in the Nordics.

In these turbulent times, great employee video communication is crucial for enterprises to create engagement and alignment to survive and succeed. At Hive Streaming we are proud to offer an industry-leading solution to this demand. We help multiple Fortune 500 customers analyze, secure, and optimize their video experience on a daily basis.

We are now looking for a Product Owner to join our Video Operations team at our office in Stockholm.

What is Hive Video Operations?

The Video Operations product line empowers IT, stakeholders, within mature video streaming organizations by providing the visibility and tools needed to identify and correct problems before and during mission-critical events.

Some of the problems we are solving for our customers:

- How sure are you that your Video Event will work? (Silent Testing)
- Do you know when something goes wrong with the Video Event (Notification Center)
- What is the quality of the ongoing video stream? (Stream Health)
- Are you aware of the success of the company Video Events when you are not in front of your PC? (Mobile Executive)
- When something goes wrong in the network and causing a bad video experience: do you know what causes it and how to solve it? (Cloud Cover)


These are just some of the very tangible customer problems we are addressing. The Video Operations product line is a greenfield area for new solutions solving pervasive and urgent customer problems. If you are looking for your creative outlet, Hive Video Operation is the place to be.
