Product Manager

PRODUCT MANAGER

Seeking an experienced Product Manager to help build and lead a newly defined upstream Product Management function within Engineering & Product Development.

This is a unique opportunity for a product leader who understands that great products start with great discovery. You will own the front end of the NPD process-translating market intelligence, consumer insights, competitive analysis, and business strategy into clear product direction that enables Engineering to execute with speed and precision.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead product discovery, market research, competitive analysis, and voice-of-customer activities
• Develop product briefs, business cases, cost models, pricing strategies, and commercial requirements
• Manage the product pipeline across 12-, 18-, and 24-month development horizons
• Partner closely with Engineering, Quality, Sales, Marketing, and Product Implementation
• Develop go-to-market strategies and commercialization plans
• Maintain strong relationships with retailers, dealers, OEM customers, and industry partners
• Analyze post-launch performance, consumer feedback, warranty data, and competitive activity to drive future product development

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of Product Management experience with physical consumer products
• Experience taking products from concept through commercial launch using a structured NPD/stage-gate process
• Strong analytical, financial modeling, market research, and competitive assessment skills
• Experience establishing cost targets and pricing strategies
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate market intelligence into actionable direction for Engineering
• RV, automotive, marine, or related aftermarket experience strongly preferred

Why Apply?

This is more than a traditional Product Manager position. You will have the opportunity to build and define a Product Management function from the ground up and play a critical role in determining which products the company brings to market and why.
