Technical Product Manager

We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves, and build a better world - together. At Ford, we're all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?

Do you believe great products are built at the intersection of business strategy and technical excellence? We do! Transforming how Ford engineers, manufactures, and delivers vehicles requires world-class Product Lifecycle Management capabilities, precise data governance, and seamless cross-functional collaboration. That's where our Enterprise PLM team makes an impact. We enable engineering and manufacturing organizations to operate smarter, move faster, and make better decisions. Join us and use your product management expertise to drive our digital thread initiative forward.

We are seeking a highly collaborative and strategically minded Technical Product Manager (TPM) to own the product vision, roadmap, and execution of our enterprise Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform. In this role, you will act as the pivotal bridge between engineering, manufacturing, and business stakeholders and our technical implementation teams. You will own the lifecycle of our Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) platform capabilities, with a heavy focus on Bill of Materials (BOM) Management and Enterprise Change Management (ECM).

Responsibilities include the end-to-end ownership of PLM product strategy and delivery, from roadmap definition through production release, working within mixed-skill Agile teams and in close partnership with engineering architects, Scrum Masters, and global business stakeholders. By leveraging a rare blend of business acumen and deep technical familiarity with the 3DX ecosystem-specifically ITEROP BPM and NETVIBES-you will translate complex business needs into high-value product roadmaps, clear user stories, and technical requirements that drive measurable operational efficiency at scale.
