Agile Product Owner

Oxyfi propels the railway industry into the most efficient, convenient and sustainable way of traveling.

We develop, deliver, and operate an innovative, robust platform along with essential applications for passenger trains. Our solutions provide onboard services for passengers, staff and systems, as well as vital services to train operators and public transport authorities.

Our services encompass the entire product life-cycle including planning, risk assessment, integration and installation of high-end onboard hardware, comprehensive proactive monitoring, maintenance, regular software updates, and continuous cyber security measures.
