Slate Auto is a manufacturer of a radically simple, highly customizable electric pickup that can be configured as a pickup or fastback SUV. The company sells directly to consumers with an online configurator called the Slate Maker, a reservation model, and an accessories marketplace for swaps and upgrades. Slate Auto emphasizes affordability, practical design, and easy ownership with integrated charging options and third‑party service and charging network partnerships.

📋 Description

• Own the Integration Roadmap: Lead the product roadmap for engineering systems integration across PLM, ERP, and MES, from item master and BOM transfer through routings, effectivity, and the change workflows that orchestrate them. • Design the Change Processes: Define Slate’s engineering and manufacturing change processes end to end, including ECR, ECO, MCO, deviation and waiver workflows, effectivity strategies, and phase-in and phase-out coordination. • Lead the BOM Strategy: Own the EBOM-to-MBOM transition, including how engineering bills of material translate into manufacturing bills of material, how routings are derived, and how variants and options propagate through the platform. • Partner with the PLM Team: Be the primary product partner to the PLM team on the engineering side and the ERP and MES teams on the operations side, translating engineering intent into platform behavior and platform constraints into engineering implications. • Partner with Program Management: Work closely with program management on the cadence of engineering and manufacturing changes, ensuring change processes match the speed Slate needs to iterate without sacrificing traceability or producibility. • Drive Product Discovery: Live with the engineers, planners, and operators who use these systems, surface the friction in the current workflows, and translate it into a backlog of high-leverage improvements. • Deliver End to End: Own the product from discovery through configuration, testing, training, cutover, and steady-state operation, working hands-on with developers, configurators, and business users to ship results.

🎯 Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Information Systems, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field is required. • 8+ years of product management, technical program management, or solutions engineering experience at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, and IT systems. • Direct hands-on experience with enterprise PLM platforms, including configuration, integration, and change management workflows. • Track record designing or delivering integrations across PLM, ERP, and MES, including item master, BOM transfer, routings, and change orchestration. • Hands-on experience with engineering and manufacturing change processes (ECR, ECO, MCO, effectivity, phase-in and phase-out) in a real manufacturing environment. • Experience running product discovery, roadmap planning, and backlog management in an agile environment, with the instincts to balance user research against delivery pace. • Direct exposure to the shop floor, comfortable working with operators, planners, and quality engineers in their environment. • You see the company as a series of interconnected loops. You understand how an engineering change ripples through the BOM, the ERP, the MES, and eventually the operator’s station. • You know that “perfect is the enemy of shipped.” You can stand up a minimum viable change process today while architecting for the cadence Slate will need at OEM scale tomorrow. • You are skilled at managing stakeholders with competing priorities, including the productive tension between engineers who want flexibility and operators who want stability. • You are bilingual between design engineers and manufacturing operators, equally credible explaining a routing constraint to an engineer and an effectivity rule to a production planner.
