As a rule of thumb try to avoid the Product Owner title. It is the name of the role on a scrum team and shouldnt be a job title imo as it represents only a portion of what a successful PM needs to do. When it is it tends to imply that you are not completely responsible for the business decisions or that you are working on an internal product. It is normally not a good sign regarding the empowerment of the product teams in the org.

No it’s not the same job
I think people mistakenly use them interchangeably, but they should not be
Most companies don't understand what a Product Manager, Product Owner , Scrum Master or a Program Manager is . Take this one

They just want someone to write user stories for the Engineering team, provide status updates , coordinate across multiple scrum teams, keep a backlog ready . What's funny is that you see the following designations -Director, PM, PO. I think there's only one line that mentions customer needs , rest of it is just execution. This essentially is a Business Analyst +Project Manager role. God, I hate SAFe
Priceless! This is my nightmare. ”DLL is not your average financial services company. In fact, we are above average in almost every way.” 😂
So for my first role in product as a PO, and total 4 YOE in consulting, my goal would then be to secure a jump to a “Product Manager” position within two years right? Sounds roughly reasonable?
The PO role will move you in the right direction for sure. You will learn what the role entails and if it is for you. Best of luck.
No they are different roles, both in scrum. There is overlap and for SAFe the certification is called POPM. https://scaledagile.com/training/safe-product-owner-product-manager/ However, depending on the company and product and how they set up scrum they may have the same person playing both roles or different people. In my current product, I am PO and my team lead is PM. I prior products I have been PM or PO.
