About the role
We are seeking a Senior Product Manager to join our Vehicle Acquisition team within the AcES Release Train at vAuto. In this role, you will help shape how dealers source, evaluate, and acquire used vehicle inventory by leveraging market data, vehicle condition insights, and predictive signals to drive confident purchasing decisions. Working alongside other PMs on the Acquisition team, you will partner closely with cross-functional teams, including AI-Integrated Teams, to lead initiatives from problem discovery through delivery and adoption. By synthesizing customer feedback, business priorities, and stakeholder insights, you will identify gaps in acquisition workflows and deliver solutions that improve dealer outcomes. This role is ideal for a product leader who thrives in an outcome-driven, spec-based environment, operates independently, and brings strong execution discipline along with practical experience applying AI to product development.
Responsibilities
- Discovery and Strategy. Identify and validate problems through dealer partners, performance managers, Sales, Support, and internal stakeholders. Use data, customer evidence, and competitive context to build a defensible point of view on what to build - and defend it with specifics.
- Spec-Driven Development. Author Discovery Specs and co-author Delivery Specs with Engineering and Design. Maintain a product context repository as the durable record of your value stream - outside of Rally.
- What We Look For:
- Discovery practice. Experienced in moving problems from ambiguity to a solid product recommendation - with the judgment to know when to stop exploring and commit. You've done this in environments where the customer's stated request is rarely the full problem.
- Roadmap and prioritization. You can articulate what you built, what you didn't, and why - connected to outcomes and customer pain points. You've owned a roadmap, led PI Planning, and made tradeoffs stick under competing stakeholder pressure.
- Data literacy. Comfortable pulling and interpreting data from Amplitude, Tableau, and Snowflake to form and support product decisions - without a data translator or relying on others to build KPI dashboards.
- Stakeholder influence. You build alignment by leading with evidence and framing tradeoffs clearly.
