Stellantis is one of the world's leading automakers and a mobility provider. In North America, it's best known for producing and selling vehicles in a portfolio of iconic and award-winning brands such as Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, Ram, Alfa Romeo and Fiat.

The Dodge brand, around for more than 110 years, carries on the spirit of brothers John and Horace Dodge. Their influence continues today as Dodge shifts into high gear with a lineup that delivers unrivaled performance in each of the segments where they compete.

Dodge drives forward as a pure performance brand, offering SRT Hellcat versions of the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Dodge Durango, as well as an R/T performance hybrid version of the all-new Dodge Hornet, representing the brand's first-ever electrified performance vehicle. Dodge is the industry's most powerful brand, offering more horsepower than any other American brand across its entire lineup.

The Dodge Product Manager will be responsible for a current or future vehicle in the Dodge brand portfolio. This is a highly strategic, fast paced, and visible position that is expected to define, develop, and launch the product and its features alongside a cross-functional team of Engineering, Research, Design, Sales, Marketing, Finance and Procurement. The candidate will develop the competitive landscape by understanding specific competitor attributes and trends, and define customer data such as demographics, psychographics, purchase/rejection reasons, and other customer behavior. These insights will then translate to a product vision including a product plan, positioning, commercial parameters, and a go-to-market plan. Near launch timing, the Product Manager will build, maintain, and communicate product launch plans and track deliverables, milestones, risks, and dependencies from the cross-functional launch team. The role will require an entrepreneurial mindset with creative thinking and strong product, sales, marketing, presentation, and communication skills.
