Job Description

Product Director

As Product Director for the Common Vehicle Inventory platform, you will lead product strategy and execution in a critical enterprise domain. This role owns the full lifecycle of new and enhanced capabilities, from concept through launch, and ensures adoption to deliver enterprise-wide benefits. You will be accountable for inventory data flows across Cox products, enabling a seamless omnichannel car-buying experience.

Success requires strong collaboration with Product and UX peers, Engineering, Architecture, and Solution Delivery teams. You'll drive alignment across stakeholders and maintain clear communication within the Agile Release Train and beyond. Exceptional communication skills are essential to influence at all levels and deliver an outstanding internal and external customer experience.

The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity, translating strategy into actionable plans and creating clarity out of chaos. You'll leverage quantitative and qualitative research to guide decisions, integrate business priorities with transformation initiatives, and deliver iterative value. Humility, curiosity, and strong influencing skills are key to shaping a shared vision for the future.

Areas of Focus

  • Product Strategy and Discovery: Lead discovery to understand inventory problems across the enterprise, including segments and personas. Collaborate with business leaders to align product strategy to business objectives. Partner with cross‑functional groups, stakeholders, and clients to inform discovery. Balance long‑term enterprise needs with short‑term incremental value.
  • Team Leadership: Foster collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement. Provide mentorship and guidance to a high-performing product team of peers.
  • Operational Execution: Translate strategic product roadmap priorities into executable work (as Rally milestones and epics) that creates short-term value aligned with long-term enterprise needs. Collaborate with Product Management and UX colleagues to ensure alignment across the product portfolio.
  • Agile Development: Apply agile methodologies effectively in a complex, enterprise environment. Build relationships across product, UX, engineering, architecture, and solution discovery. Ensure teams understand the product vision and execute in a way that incrementally delivers value and have a healthy pipeline of meaningful product work consistently available.
  • Adoption Planning: Apply customer mindset to internal capabilities to inform product development and launch activities. Collaborate with product readiness, product/engineering teams, business stakeholders and implementation and customer support partners to build Go-To-Market rollout and migration plans. Balance operational scalability with cost and speed.
  • Client Engagement: Engage with internal and external clients throughout the discovery process to gather feedback and input on product ideas.
  • Product Success: Define and monitor KPIs, communicate insights, and use results to inform roadmap priorities and continuous improvement.

Required skills

  • Bachelor's degree in a related discipline and 10+ years' experience in a related field. The right candidate could also have a different combination, such as a master's degree and 8 years' experience; a Ph.D. and 5 years' experience in a related field; or 22 years' experience in a related field
  • Requires 12+ years of experience in software Product Management.
  • Strong knowledge of Microsoft Office, Copilot/AI tools, Agile methodologies, product management platforms (e.g., Rally), data analysis, and collaboration with engineering and architecture teams.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, critical thinking, collaboration, organization, growth mindset, humility, curiosity, influencing ability, and problem-solving in ambiguous situations.
  • Serve as a domain expert in primary discipline or technical area.
  • Operational leadership – proven ability to convert executive direction into clear, cohesive execution plans and team‑owned workstreams that drive measurable outcomes. Comfortable mobilizing teams, creating alignment quickly, and sustaining momentum.
  • Critical thinking – comfort in challenging assumptions, asking hard questions, and solving complex problems for enterprise products.
  • Written and verbal communication – can articulate customer problems and solution value precisely, influence cross‑functional teams, and motivate action. Skilled at communicating with peers and leaders across functions and with dealer clients.
  • Highly organized – able to prioritize competing priorities and build plans that move complex projects forward with a bias for action.
  • Growth mindset – committed to continuous improvement and receptive to constructive feedback for personal and professional growth.
  • Collaborative problem solving – proactively seeks input, handles disagreements well, and finds creative solutions to achieve win‑win outcomes.
