Product Owner, Xsolla Partner Network at Xsolla

Job description

About You We are looking for a Product Owner to join the team behind Xsolla Partner Network (XPN). The role is based in the US, and we're open to strong candidates globally. Partner Network connects game publishers with content creators to drive discovery, engagement, and revenue. XPN is a two-sided marketplace. We help publishers run creator marketing campaigns ( xsolla.com/partner-network ), and we give creators a way to join those campaigns, along with tools to manage and grow their channels ( xsolla.com/for/creators ). Each side has its own users and goals, and each shapes the other. Helping both sides succeed together is what makes this role so interesting. You'll work closely with customers on both sides and with a collaborative team that's building something new in the creator economy. You'll bring what you learn back to the Product Director and the team, help shape where the product goes, and then work alongside design and engineering to bring it to life. This is a hands-on role that mixes customer conversations, product definition, and day-to-day delivery. If you enjoy turning what you learn from customers into shipped features, and you like doing it with a team that moves fast and supports each other, we'd love to meet you. About Us Xsolla is a global commerce company with robust tools and services to help developers solve the inherent challenges of the video game industry. From indie to AAA, companies partner with Xsolla to help them fund, distribute, market, and monetize their games.
