The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Emerson is hiring a Product Owner in Albany, OR.

• Role description

  We're looking for a mid-level Product Owner who thrives at the intersection of analysis, planning, and cross-functional execution. A freelance Product Owner role that values ownership over busywork, pays $67,000 - $95,000, and invests in your long-term growth.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Sequence the rollout so OR regions don't all break at once
  • Translate ambiguous business problems into structured, solvable workstreams
  • Own the Cross-functional Leadership model that everyone quietly trusts to forecast next quarter
  • Push a business pilot past the part where most pilots die
  • Own the cadence that turns Coaching reporting into Feature Prioritization action
  • Watch competitor moves and tell Emerson which ones actually matter

  What You'll Bring

  • Demonstrated Stakeholder Management expertise in a fast-moving business environment
  • Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience
  • A portfolio or work samples that demonstrate your business expertise
  • Familiarity with Competitive Analysis and related tools or frameworks
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent
  • A track record of no-ego delivery in a freelance structure

  From an Albany loft, Emerson has built a remote-friendly reputation for solving business problems others quietly gave up on. You set the boundaries of your freelance schedule and we respect them without the side-eye.

  With $67,000 - $95,000 as the anchor, expect mentorship, a benefits package worth bragging about, and the latitude to work remote-first.

  This is an open, funded role that we intend to fill in the coming weeks.

  Your next $67,000 - $95,000 opportunity is one application away, so why keep it waiting?
