Supported by INNOVX, a subsidiary of Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P), Tourba aims to regenerate six million hectares of farmland and degraded grassland across Africa and South America by 2030.
Tourba empowers farmers and ranchers to adopt conservation and carbon farming practices that improve productivity, generate additional income from certified carbon credits, and restore the land. With a successful track record in Morocco, including the transformation of 25,000 hectares and strategic partnerships with the Moroccan Ministry of Agriculture, Tourba is launching a bold new chapter in Ethiopia.
This role is a unique opportunity to join a global mission at the local level and help shape the future of agriculture in Ethiopia.

We are seeking a mission-driven Product Owner to lead the delivery of Tourba's technology and platform solutions in Ethiopia. This role will be pivotal in ensuring that our digital tools meet the evolving needs of Ethiopian farmers and ranchers as they transition to sustainable, climate-smart agriculture.
The Product Owner will translate agronomic and business needs into actionable development requirements, prioritize product features, and collaborate closely with internal developers, agronomists, and global product leads.

  • Maintain a well-groomed product backlog and ensure clear, continuous communication on development progress.

  • Gather, classify, and integrate user feedback into product iterations.

3. Data Ownership & Quality Assurance

  • Analyze and anticipate data issues that could impact product performance.

  • Regularly evaluate the quality of data generated and ensure it aligns with project goals.

  • Resolve issues efficiently with minimal external intervention.

4. Optional (Preferred) Competencies

  • Experience in using data to generate product KPIs and user behavior reports.

  • Familiarity with carbon credit mechanisms, digital agriculture, or climate-smart innovations.

Job Requirements

Experience & Background:

  • 2–4 years of experience in product ownership, digital platform development, or business analysis.

  • Prior work in high-growth or impact-driven organizations (startups, agritech, or climate tech preferred).
