We serve individual owners, fleets, dealers, and repair shops with plug-and-play replacements, custom upgrades, and fast turnaround repairs. We’re in full growth mode and want to expand our product lines quickly-especially in screens and related electronics. This is a small, high-impact team where people roll up their sleeves, own the outcome, and get things done with limited hand-holding. The Role We’re hiring a hungry, high-speed Strategic Sourcing & Product Manager focused on automotive screens and related electronics.

You won’t be handed a roadmap-you’ll create one and execute it. You need deep expertise in international sourcing, strong commercial instincts, technical aptitude for automotive electronics (especially screens), and the drive to grow our product assortment rapidly. What You’ll Do Launch new product lines fast - Identify high-potential automotive screens, displays, infotainment units, and related electronics.

Drive launches with marketing - Partner directly with marketing to get new products live and selling. Provide clear product info, specs, images, positioning, and differentiation; help shape launch messaging; and coordinate timing so products don’t sit idle. You are accountable for the product being ready for marketing and for supporting the launch process. Optimize and expand purchases - Improve costs, terms, and reliability on existing and new sourced products. Negotiate effectively and scale successful lines. Technical evaluation & execution - Assess screens and electronics for fit, quality, compatibility, and remanufacturing or resale potential. Work hands-on with samples and suppliers to clear obstacles and get products launched. Own outcomes in a small team - Move quickly with limited direction. Partner with operations, engineering, and commercial teams to get new products live and selling. Focus on revenue and margin growth through better and broader product availability. This is a role for someone who gets things done, not someone who waits for perfect conditions or constant guidance.
