The Product Manager (internally, the Product Owner) is the single point of accountability for an IT product across its entire lifecycle — from inception through operation to retirement. In the JAS operating model the Product Owner acts as the “mini-CEO” of the product: owning its P&L, strategic direction and roadmap, stakeholder relationships, service and vendor performance, and security posture on a continuous basis.
This is an ownership and accountability role, not a coordination or reporting role. It demands a customer-centric, commercially astute leader who pairs genuine thought leadership with strong technical depth — able to shape demand, challenge decisions with evidence, and own architecture and technical trade-offs rather than delegate them. The successful candidate thrives in a fast-paced, global logistics environment and balances strategic thinking with disciplined, hands-on execution.
REQUIREMENTS:
Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering or equivalent; product management certification (e.g., Pragmatic, SAFe PO/PM) advantageous.
5+ years in IT product ownership, technical product management or a senior technical/solution role — ideally with P&L or TCO accountability for a product or platform.
Demonstrable technical depth (architecture, cloud, integration or software delivery) and evidence of thought leadership in a relevant technology or industry domain.
IT experience in the logistics and/or warehousing industry.
Strong knowledge of the IT market, trends, technologies and best practices, with excellent presentation and interpersonal skills across diverse, global teams.
Willingness to complete a Pluralsight Role IQ baseline for the IT Product Manager role and follow a targeted learning path, consistent with the Company's capability-development framework.
