• Senior Product Manager, AI and Data

    Ford Motor Company (Dearborn, MI)


    As Ford Credit’s Senior Product Manager, AI & Data Strategy, you will be a key architect of an intelligence backbone that powers customer and risk decisions worldwide. Sitting at the intersection of fintech, automotive, and cutting-edge AI, you will convert petabytes of raw data into frictionless originations, hyper-personalized servicing, predictive collections, and real-time risk insights. You will operate as a full-stack product leader: shaping vision, evangelizing strategy, and rolling up your sleeves to ship production-grade solutions.

     

    What You Will Do...

     

    **Strategy & Vision:** Define a north-star vision for data and AI capabilities tied to clear OKRs. Translate that vision into an outcome-driven roadmap of high-value datasets, streaming feature pipelines, and model services.

    **Platform Architecture** : Product-manage shared ML-Ops assets—including feature stores, model registries, vector DBs, and prompt-engineering toolkits—to accelerate engineering teams across the enterprise.

    **Responsible AI Leadership:** Bake "Responsible AI" into every layer of the product, ensuring governance, fairness, explainability, security, and human-in-the-loop controls are paramount.

    **Execution & Delivery:** Lead end-to-end product discovery and agile delivery. You will define problems, write crisp requirements, prioritize ruthlessly, and guide launches from MVP to global scale.

    **Performance Optimization:** Own the success metrics, including data fidelity, model lift, latency, reliability, unit economics, and customer NPS. Design and run statistically rigorous experiments (A/B tests, causal inference) to optimize them.

    **Influence & Mentorship:** Mentor a cohort of associate PMs and influence senior leaders in Engineering, Risk, Compliance, and Design to align on strategy.
