Product Manager I 6-Month Contract

What you'll do 

We are looking for a Product Manager to support one of our Flagship products, Activix CRM. Activix CRM is an automotive customer relationship management platform that helps dealerships manage leads, customer interactions, and sales workflows in one place. It enables teams to follow up effectively, build stronger customer relationships, and turn more opportunities into sales. This role is for six-month contract, with potential to extend as business needs evolve. This role is designed to provide continuity and delivery capacity during employee leaves.  You will own a medium-sized product area and/or a complex set of initiatives within Activix, working across a broad range of features and projects. You will define the scope and product approach for your initiatives, connect them to the broader strategy, and work with cross-functional teams to deliver meaningful customer and business outcomes. This is a strong fit for a product manager who can independently turn customer, business, and technical inputs into actionable plans, while seeking direction when priorities or trade-offs require alignment. 

• Own the end-to-end lifecycle for a medium-sized product area and/or multiple complex initiatives across Activix, from discovery and definition through launch, measurement, and iteration.
• Define initiative strategy, scope, roadmap priorities, and success metrics, ensuring work fits the broader Activix and AutoSync product strategy.
• Manage a varied portfolio of projects and features, balancing near-term delivery needs with customer value, business impact, dependencies, and technical feasibility.
• Use customer feedback, product data, market context, and stakeholder input to identify opportunities, frame problems, and make informed product trade-offs.
• Translate needs into clear product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, process flows, and delivery-ready documentation.
• Partner closely with engineering, design, QA, and cross-functional teams such as sales, marketing, legal, operations, and support to align stakeholders and move work forward.
• Lead refinement, planning, reviews, demos, launch readiness, and post-launch follow-up; proactively surface risks, dependencies, decisions, and changes in scope.
• Drive experiments, pilots, and iterative improvements where appropriate, using results and learnings to refine the product approach.
• Communicate product plans, progress, decisions, and outcomes clearly to delivery teams and stakeholders; contribute to product reporting and continuous improvement of team practices. 

What you'll bring

• 2-4 years of product management experience, ideally in SaaS, e-commerce, marketplaces, or other customer-facing digital products.
• Demonstrated experience owning product features or initiatives from discovery through delivery, with measurable customer or business impact.
• Strong ability to independently dive into customer insights and data, frame solution options, and make practical trade-off decisions.
• Experience defining strategy and scope for a product feature, product area, or complex set of initiatives within a broader product direction.
• Hands-on experience working closely with engineering and design teams in an agile product development environment.
• Hands-on experience using Jira and similar product-management tools to manage backlogs, prioritize work, and communicate delivery progress.
• Confidence translating ambiguity into clear requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and delivery plans; sound judgment about when to seek input or escalation.
• Strong stakeholder-management and communication skills, with the ability to lead cross-functional discussions, keep teams aligned, and track progress across dependencies.
• A customer-focused, analytical, action-oriented mindset and the ability to ramp quickly into an existing product area during a fixed-term engagement. 

Nice to Have 

• Experience in automotive, automotive retail, dealer technology, or a complex multi-sided platform environment.
• Experience using product analytics and experimentation tools to assess performance, inform prioritization, and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Experience coordinating initiatives that involve multiple internal teams, third-party integrations, or operational dependencies.
