Product Director
CurrentResponsible for developing and managing enterprise capabilities and APIs for inventory and incentive data across Cox Automotive. I formulate an in-depth understanding of problems by customer segment by partnering with UX, marketing, client solutions and business stakeholders to observe and solicit feedback from consumers and clients using design thinking methods and the jobs-to-be-done framework. I also partner with Product Owners, UX, Architecture, and Engineering to deliver prototypes and tests to validate solutions. I create and maintain the product strategy and roadmap, create business plans to secure funding, and develop the go-to-market strategy. I create epics in accordance with the scaled agile framework and work with Product Owners to ensure the delivery team is aligned with features. I also collaborate with other Product Managers/Directors to ensure alignment with other Cox Automotive products and solution sets.
