Role

Who you are

8-10+ years in product management with at least 2 years leading people
Hands-on experience in fleet, automotive tech, or industrial IoT is desired
Track record of shipping products that cut cost or boost uptime
Be extremely comfortable with data analysis
Clear, open communicator who can align many highly opinionated teams
Nice to have: shop-floor experience :)

What the job involves

Fleets depend on healthy and profitable vehicles. Your goal is simple: keep vehicles on the road longer, at lower cost, whether they run on diesel, gas, or batteries
As Group Product Manager, Vehicle Operations, you will own the health and performance of every truck on the Motive platform. You will work hand in hand with engineers, data scientists, product managers, sales engineers, account executives, and customers to build full-stack products that stretch from hardware firmware to cloud services and mobile apps and use AI at the core of everything
Build and deploy AI models that predict failures before they happen and surface actions that save fleets real money
Turn billions of sensor readings into clear decisions that raise uptime and cut fuel use
Automate maintenance and warranty workflows
Lift vehicle uptime and reliability. Cut unplanned repair costs and roadside breakdowns
Optimize fuel and energy use mile by mile
Extend engine and battery life for mixed fleets
You will define the vision, run experiments, and deliver world class products. If you can ID a Cummins by its exhaust note and still have a shelf of Hot Wheels trucks, you’ll feel right at home here

Our take

Trucking is a huge but fragmented industry that was largely ignored by Silicon Valley until companies such as Motive (formerly KeepTruckin) came along. The integrated fleet management platform acts as air traffic control for trucks, bringing drivers online and into the 21st century.

The company offers both hardware and software solutions to freight companies, allowing them to manage their fleet and keep their drivers safe. One of these solutions is an AI-powered dashcam that detects unsafe driving behavior in real time and instantly alerts the driver.

The platform, which is used by over 120,000 companies, from small businesses to Fortune 500 enterprises, received series F funding in 2022, which is being used to accelerate its investment in AI, expand its product offerings into spend management, and grow its enterprise capabilities.
