Role Overview
This is a senior individual contributor role requiring strong product instincts, technical
fluency, and the ability to operate autonomously across the full delivery lifecycle. The ideal
candidate is equally comfortable in a whiteboard session defining a solution and in a sprint
review tracking execution details
Expectations
Own the intake, prioritization, and end-to-end product delivery of AEC platform
requirements driven by OEM program teams. This role works closely with AEC platform
product and engineering stakeholders to ensure solutions are scalable and reusable, while
partnering with program teams to translate OEM needs into clear requirements and
execution-ready work items.
Key Responsibilities
• Consolidate and prioritize platform asks across OEM programs with program
leadership; manage tradeoffs and release scope
• Define solutions and author high-quality PRDs covering scope, workflows, data
contracts, acceptance criteria, and rollout; create and manage epics and stories in
the tracking system
• Drive cross-team solution alignment; identify dependencies early and secure
commitments
• Lead grooming with engineering, QA, and TPMs to obtain estimates, sequencing,
and risk/dependency tracking; ensure release readiness
• Track execution through release, escalate blockers, and maintain clear stakeholder
communication
• Post-release: monitor outcomes, triage issues versus enhancements, and feed
learnings back into the roadmap
Ideal Candidate
Must-haves: 5+ years in enterprise SaaS PM, robust PRD writing skills, executive
stakeholder management, platform architecture fluency, and experience leading
engineering grooming independently.
Strong AI, Agentic AI experience is must.
Strong plus: Automotive retail or DMS experience, familiarity with OEM-dealer dynamics,
exposure to Tekion AEC or comparable platforms.
Key Hire Signal
This person must be able to design solutions and write PRDs that survive expert review
without needing platform PMs in the room. If they rely on collaborative grooming to refine
requirements, they will create bottlenecks in the delivery cycle.
