What will you do as a Technical Product Manager?
Like software developers and testers, the Technical Product Manager (TPM) is a team member of an agile development team. The TPM is accountable for maximizing the value of the product. That involves a thorough alignment with both the DevOps community and Vopak business, to define the value a product can add. The TPM is responsible for translating features and requirements into user stories ready for development. Once the scrum team delivered the product features, the TPM will make sure these are accepted, implemented, used properly and maintained. That involves a lot of involvement with the user community of the product.
