Job description
We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day, roll up our sleeves, and build a better world—together. At Ford, we\'re all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves?
Do you believe modern technology platforms are essential to designing the vehicles of the future? We do! Transforming Product Development requires scalable, highly available platforms and software solutions that enable Ford engineers to design, develop, integrate, and release vehicle programs efficiently. That\’s where the Product Development Platform Operations team makes an impact. We build and operate cloud-native platforms and enterprise solutions using Infrastructure as Code, Configuration as Code, automated delivery, and modern DevOps practices.
We are seeking an experienced Technical Product Manager to support the design, delivery, modernization, and operational success of enterprise applications and services used across Product Development. In this role, you will work closely with product owners, architects, infrastructure teams, software engineers, and business stakeholders to define technical priorities and deliver secure, scalable, resilient, and customer-centered solutions.
This role requires strong technical depth in full stack engineering, cloud technologies, microservices architecture, API development, data integrations, and automated CI/CD delivery. Responsibilities include guiding the end-to-end technical lifecycle of Product Development capabilities—from requirements and solution design through delivery, production support, modernization, and continuous improvement. By combining technical acumen, product thinking, and a customer-centric mindset, you will help modernize core engineering and Product Lifecycle Management capabilities while maintaining high standards for performance, reliability, security, and maintainability.
