The team is investing in a modernized interface, agentic AI inside the core workflow, native video, and enterprise capability for multi-rooftop dealer groups.As a Sr Product Manager, you will own a piece of that modernization end to end. This role sits in Cox Automotive’s consolidated Product Creator model, which unifies Product Manager and Product Owner into a single AI-native product practice spanning five areas: Market & Client Research, Product Strategy, Product Development, In-Market Product Performance, and Professional Essentials. In practice, that means you carry your product area from discovery through delivery and measurement. You will spend real time with dealers, build tangible artifacts yourself instead of waiting for a handoff, and direct AI across the product lifecycle to accelerate the work. If you want to see your decisions reach dealers in weeks and measure what they did, this is that role.What You’ll DoOwn a product area outright. Discovery, specs, backlog, launch, and the measurement afterward — one owner, no handoff between PM and PO. You develop the vision and value proposition for your area and decide where we should be better than everyone else.Get in front of dealers. Interact with dealerships, sit with sales staff and BDC teams, and partner with UX research, marketing research, and client solutions to gather dealer and consumer feedback — pairing firsthand observation with AI-driven synthesis at scale.Build prototypes before engineering writes a line of code. Use AI-native tools like Claude, Claude Code, and Figma Make to put something real in front of a dealer and validate it early.Bring agentic AI into the dealer’s day. AI that does real work inside the selling and follow-up workflow, on a product where adoption is measured daily.Author specs that leave nothing to interpretation. Clear enough for both teams and AI agents to execute without ambiguity, then own backlog refinement and incremental value versioning in Rally against them.Practice context engineering. Build and maintain the reusable context — product vision, dealer personas, competitive intel, prior decisions, research — that grounds both human and AI-assisted work in accurate, current information.Move with a bias toward action. Run experimentation and trade-off analysis, manage dependencies across engineering, UX, analytics, marketing, sales, and client solutions, and make recommendations to the release train.Who You AreMinimumBachelor’s degree in a related discipline and 4 years’ experience in a related field. The right candidate could also have a different combination, such as a master’s degree and 2 years’ experience; a Ph.D. and up to 1 year of experience; or 16 years’ experience in a related field.Experience owning a software product or feature area through a full cycle: discovery, delivery, and post-launch measurement.5 years of product management experience, including 2 years owning a B2B SaaS product or platform.Experience managing a backlog in an agile delivery tool such as Rally or Jira.Experience using AI tools to conduct research, build prototypes, or author specifications.Availability for rotational on-call duties outside of standard business hours may be requiredAble to work onsite 3 times/weekPreferredAutomotive industry experience with a focus on dealer or consumer software.Experience with dealership software — CRM, DMS, or retail and service workflow tools.Experience shipping features built on large language models or agentic AI.Experience with enterprise, multi-tenant products serving customers with many locations.Experience in Spec Driven Development.Drug TestingTo be employed in this role, you’ll need to clear a pre-employment drug test.
