  • Inventory Workforce and Vehicle Management: Support the design and development of a new collection of AI and Machine Learning vehicle routing and advanced manufacturing solutions. The goal, automate the entire reconditioning process while optimizing for speed, cost and quality.

What you'll be doing

While responsibilities vary by team, all roles share a common set of expectations:
  • Drive the product roadmap and lead end-to-end product development informed by customer research, analytics, and business needs.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Engineering, Design, Data Science, Analytics, and business stakeholders to scope, prioritize, and ship high-impact initiatives.
  • Own experimentation and measurement, actively interpreting results and translating insights into continuous product improvements.
  • Apply AI tools as a core part of how you work, accelerating research, synthesis, prototyping, and day-to-day execution.
  • Write clear requirements, project briefs, and documentation to align stakeholders and enable effective engineering execution.
  • Use data to size opportunities, evaluate tradeoffs, and make decisions.
  • Take full ownership of your product area and be accountable for the long-term trajectory of key business outcomes such as sales, gross profit, customer satisfaction, and cost per unit sold.

What you should have/know
  • A bachelor's degree in STEM, Economics, Finance, Business, Design, or equivalent experience.
  • Two or more years of product, product analytics, or related experience for mid-level consideration; four or more years for senior-level consideration.
  • Outcome-oriented and data-driven decision making, backed by expertise in metrics, analytics, and tools such as SQL, Tableau, Looker, or Sigma.
  • An AI-first approach to product work, with hands-on experience using AI tools for research, analysis, prototyping, and day-to-day productivity.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication, organizational, and project management skills with strong attention to detail.
  • Ability to learn and absorb technical concepts and communicate them effectively to non-technical audiences.
  • Deep product experience at one or more highly successful and ideally high-growth companies.
  • Strong opinions about consumer products and a developed sense of product taste.
  • Experience with experiment design and interpretation.
  • A willingness to roll up your sleeves and do whatever it takes for the sake of the team and our customers.
  • Self-motivated with a sense of humor and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ambitious environment.

It would be great if you also have
  • A genuine passion for AI and its potential to transform product experiences, not just familiarity with the tools but a curiosity about where the technology is headed and how to apply it creatively.
  • Hands-on experience building or iterating on AI-driven products, including features powered by machine learning, LLMs, RAG, tool-calling, or agent frameworks.
  • Knowledge of data science best practices and the ability to collaborate closely with data scientists and ML engineers to shape model-informed product decisions.
  • Strong UX instincts and the ability to anticipate user needs and pain points, especially in AI-assisted or conversational experiences.
  • Experience with agile methodology and product strategy and roadmapping.
  • Familiarity with Snowflake, Sigma, Looker, or Tableau for independent data exploration.
  • Background in automotive, e-commerce, marketplaces, retail, or similarly complex operating environments.
