Supply Chain Systems Product Manager - Slate

ABOUT SLATE

At Slate , we’re building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love—and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization. The spirit of DIY and customization runs throughout every element of a Slate , because people should have control over how their trucks look, feel, and represent them.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

As Supply Chain Systems Product Manager at Slate , you will own the product layer for warehouse management and transportation management at Slate , the systems that take inbound parts from the dock to the line and outbound vehicles from the plant to the customer. You will partner with supply chain leadership to build Slate ’s WMS capability today and lead the definition of Slate ’s TMS capability for tomorrow, designing the integrations, workflows, and discipline the supply chain runs on as Slate scales from launch through global OEM operations.

This is a hands-on product role. You will live with the receivers, pickers, planners, and dispatchers who run the warehouse and the freight network, and you will translate what you learn from each into the integration architecture, the workflows, and the user experience the supply chain organization uses. You will own the supply chain systems product backlog through configuration, testing, training, cutover, and steady-state operation, and you will lead the strategic work that gets Slate from a defined TMS need to a deployed TMS capability.

The Supply Chain Systems Product Manager reports directly to the Head of Enterprise Systems.

Design Inbound and Outbound Workflows: Define the user experience and operational workflows for warehouse operators, planners, dispatchers, and carriers, prioritizing system-driven execution over operator-level decision-making.

Partner with Supply Chain Leadership: Be the primary product partner to the Head of Supply Chain, plant logistics leaders, and the carrier and 3PL ecosystem, translating supply chain priorities into platform capability.
