We’re on the cusp of delivering something that has the potential to change the world. Are you ready to make history in an industry that is at the cutting edge of innovation?
OneWeb’s mission is to enable Internet access for everyone, everywhere. To fulfill our mission, OneWeb is revolutionizing the satellite industry and building a global communications network with a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide connectivity to people around the world. To achieve our ambitious goals, we need to have the right technical systems, products, and tools in place to support us. Our digital products will be the tools that we need to have in place to help us become the world’s largest and first truly global communications network.

The program of work for establishing the BSS/OSS capability is sponsored by the CIO, who has responsibility for driving the implementation and ongoing management of all the core technology systems and processes for running the customer, product, and service lifecycle.
Overview:
In order to deliver the breadth of technical capability needed to have a successful business launch, we have split our program into multiple delivery portfolios each consisting of one or more Digital Products. Our Product Owners will deliver a clear set of capabilities across one of 14 such digital products. Our agile ways of working allow us to react quickly to changing needs, competition, and tactics to ensure we stay ahead of the curve.
Our Product Owners act as the bridge between our commercial organization and technical delivery. They collaborate closely with Agile PMs, technical architects, and other Product Owners to ensure that we meet our quarterly delivery cadence.
