AO rolls out Product Team approach to deliver a world-class shopping experience

AO Tech are adopting a more agile way of working after a series of successful tests across the ao.com website.

For a while now, we’ve been experimenting with new product-focused teams that can freely work on improving a section of the AO website. Made up of talented groups of Front and Back End Developers, UX Designers and Business Analysts amongst others, we’ve started to see great results on ao.com.

From payments, checkout, search and more, we’ve seen improvements all over our site from AOers who continually learn and develop their skills by working on products that they’re passionate about. We’re rolling out this new approach to make sure our teams are always delivering a world-class shopping experience for our customers.

Steve Johnson, Director of e-Commerce and Marketing at AO, said: “We always make sure we’re creating an environment that not only does incredible work, but is very supportive and helps people grow their skillset, and we’re thrilled to be taking this next step.

“We wanted to make sure what we were doing was right, and once we saw the results of our product team tests, we knew that rolling this approach out to the rest of AO Tech was a no-brainer. We’re always on the lookout for more incredible talent and we can’ wait to continue our great work and lead the retail evolution.”
