We're looking for a Senior Product Manager for AI and Agentic Automation to lead the charge toward autonomous operations by building AI capabilities that stretch from edge devices to cloud intelligence. This isn't about chasing the latest trend; this is about unlocking real outcomes, such as predicting machine failure before it happens, optimizing production schedules in real-time, integrating AMRs (robots) that handle physical materials, and surfacing insights that let the plant run itself. Reporting to the Group Product Manager for Platform, you will lead the AI product strategy, evaluate technology vendors, address cost management concerns, and collaborate with domain-focused teams to discover and prioritize high-value AI use cases. Additionally, you will integrate Plex's AI strategy with other Rockwell Automation AI products. We ask that you have a balance of deep technical understanding, strategic acumen, and experience communicating complex technical concepts to a variety of audiences. You will be an important figure connecting engineering, domain specialists, sales teams, and customers, ensuring Rockwell Automation continues to lead the market through intelligent innovation. Your Responsibilities Lead the AI product vision, roadmap, and go-to-market strategy-anchored in the goal of autonomous operations. Drive a buy/build/partner strategy for the full AI stack. Partner with internal domain teams (MES, QMS, ERP) to prioritize high-value AI use cases. Lead AI product discovery: break down plant personas into use cases, and use cases into AI-powered actions. Leverage our multi-tenant architecture to create cross-customer intelligence, while navigating data ownership and legal constraints. Coordinate cross-functional efforts to integrate Plex AI capabilities with broader Rockwell Automation AI, automation, and AMR products. Lead customer and sales conversations, promoting the vision, benefits, and roadmap of AI and workflow automation within Plex and the wider manufacturing operations management business. Establish clear metrics to measure and demonstrate the success, adoption, and value of AI and workflow automation capabilities. The Essentials Bachelor's Degree in Relevant Field.

Strong product discovery chops: you ask the right questions, cut through noise, and turn ambiguity into execution. Proven track record of launching successful AI products or product capabilities, including experience with monetization strategies, vendor management, and cost optimization. Experience navigating multi-tenant data ownership issues and training cross-customer models responsibly.
