blockstream · Zurich ·
Blockstream was founded in 2014 by Dr. Adam Back and a group of fellow cryptographers and engineers who are passionate about Bitcoin and its potential to change the world. Today, Blockstream is the leading Bitcoin company, providing cutting-edge infrastructure solutions for enterprises, institutions, and individual Bitcoin users. We develop industry-leading Bitcoin self-custody solutions, Bitcoin-based financial products, second-layer scaling technologies, and enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure.
We are seeking a Product Owner, a hands-on technical role responsible for building, integrating, and deploying blockchain and digital asset solutions for enterprise and institutional clients.
Operating within the Service & Enterprise Solutions organization, the Product Owner works closely with Solution Architects, Delivery, Engineering, and Client teams to turn defined solution architectures into working, production-ready client platforms. This role focuses on execution and implementation, ensuring solutions are correctly built, integrated, tested, and deployed in line with architectural standards and delivery plans.
While solution design and architectural direction are owned by Solution Architects and the Head of Solutions, the Product Owner is accountable for technical implementation quality, correctness, and operational readiness of client solutions.

Work with Delivery and Project Management teams to support execution, testing, and go-live activities
Support DevOps activities, including CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure configuration, and environment setup
Troubleshoot integration, performance, and deployment issues across client environments
Contribute implementation feedback to improve solution patterns, documentation, and reusability
Support early-life production stabilization and operational handover
What We Look for In You (Required Qualifications):
3–6 years of experience in software engineering, solution engineering, platform engineering, or system integration roles
Hands-on experience building and integrating multi-system platforms in fintech, financial services, or security-sensitive environments
Strong experience with:
Cloud platforms (AWS preferred, Azure/GCP a plus)

Ability to work effectively with architects, engineers, delivery teams, and client technical stakeholders
Self-starter with proven ability to work collaboratively across multiple teams and geographies, demonstrating high-quality and high-touch customer engagement throughout all phases of delivery
Languages: Swiss German, German, French and English required; and/or Italian a plus
Location: Switzerland, with focus on Zurich, Geneva and Lugano
Nice To Haves (Preferred Qualifications):
Experience working with blockchain or digital asset platforms (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Layer-2s, etc.)
Familiarity with distributed systems and messaging technologies
Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and container orchestration
Exposure to regulated environments (banking, custody, payments)
Interest in growing into Solution Architect roles
Genuine interest in Bitcoin, digital assets, and blockchain-based financial infrastructure
