Varies, but generally a product owner is focused on taking the strategy and translating it down into actionable tasks. They work across teams and roles to make sure the team is executing properly. It tends to be more tactical than strategic. They don't have to know how to sell or market products well, or how to get those products into the market successfully. On paper (a narrower scrum view) they are responsible from sprint planning, to daily stand ups, to review, to retrospective. Not the larger backlog prior to sprint planning, and not what happens after some software is accepted as done / to be shipped.
