We usually respond within two weeks
Who We Are
Tech has always been at our core, ever since 2006 when one of our founders, Linus, built the first version of Ridestore.com from his childhood bedroom. A lot has changed since then, but our passion for our customers and tech is still at the heart of everything we do. Along the way, we’ve had the chance to build the kind of company we’ve always dreamed of working for.
Here’s what we think makes us stand out:
- Remote since 2014: Work from anywhere in CET ±2 hours.
- Autonomy over everything:Minimal meetings, and asynchronous communication. We trust you to own your work and value your focus.
- Smart and humble teammates: We hire people we can learn from—and have fun working with.
- Efficiency is key: We automate everything we can to keep our team lean and effective.
- Freedom and responsibility: With great freedom comes... yes, you guessed it: great responsibility.
What You’ll Do
As a Technical Product Owner, you’ll be the go-to person connecting our tech team with the back-office functions of Logistics, Finance, and People & Culture (HR). In short, this means turning business ideas into workable tech solutions and make sure technical innovations create real value for the business.
On a daily basis, you’ll be the main tech contact for back-office functions, leading projects and providing first-line support. You’ll also take charge of key systems like payment providers, accounting and tax tools, and logistics platforms. Beyond managing these systems, you’ll bring fresh ideas to the table and act as a subject matter expert (SME) in the back-office space, helping to shape smarter, more efficient solutions to WOW your teammates and make their work in these platforms easier. Over time, you’ll fully own your areas, making sure they keep up with the business and its needs.
Our tech stack is built with our e-commerce platform Commercetools as its centerpiece, but most of the services and integrations you will work with are in-house custom-built microservices or applications. You will work with the full spectrum, from function- and integration specification to testing, rollout, monitoring, and problem investigation.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone proactive, communicative, and as solution-oriented as a Swiss Army knife to be the bridge where business meets technology. If you enjoy teaming up with diverse groups, driving projects forward like a pro, and making sure tech and business work in harmony, this might just be your jam.
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
- Communicate clearly and build strong connections with both tech and other teams.
- Like to take charge of your work, driving tasks and projects forward with confidence.
- Enjoy exploring new systems and tackling challenging problems head-on.
- Have a strong sense of responsibility and a focus on delivering solid results.
You’ll need to have:
- Experience in e-commerce or a consumer-facing company (D2C).
- A track record of owning and driving technical projects or products.
- Hands-on experience with tech projects in areas like Finance, Logistics, or HR.
- A solid technical background - even if you’re not coding, you’re comfortable in a tech environment.
It’s even better if you also have:
- Deeper knowledge of system architecture or coding.
- Experience working in logistics, finance, or HR systems - it’s always a bonus to know your way around these areas.
What’s in It for You?
At Ridestore, we believe work should be as enjoyable as it is impactful. We’ve built a culture around trust, flexibility, and collaboration, giving our team the freedom to work in ways that suit them best.
This is a full-time remote-first role (CET ±2 hours preferred) with flexible hours and minimal meetings. We usually meet as a team to connect in person twice a year. We also have an office in Gothenburg that is free to visit/work from when you feel like it. You’ll have the opportunity to work with autonomy and make a meaningful impact on Ridestore’s journey, all while collaborating with a team that values creativity, humility, and continuous improvement.
Join us! We’ll offer you freedom in a passionate and somewhat snowy environment where you can greatly impact the Ridestore journey with your work.
Final Note
In your application, please state your (tax) residency (since unfortunately, we are not able to work with all countries) and your earliest possible start date.
While a CV is great to add, we’ve chosen to ask a number of questions for the application that we deem important for this role. As much as we love AI and use it on a daily basis, we want to see the real you, so take this into account when you answer the questions.

HOW WE HIRE
We want a small and diverse team, so we don’t care where you come from, what you believe in, how old you are, how you look, or if you're into skiing or chess. We want our hiring process to be fair and focused on finding the best person for the job. That's why we use tests to help us get past any biases, along with interviews so we can get to know each other. This way, we can make sure you're the right fit for the role and that you'll feel at home with us at Ridestore.
