Job Description
Position Summary: Plex, by Rockwell Automation, is the leading cloud-based, multi-tenant Manufacturing Execution System (MES), Quality Management System (QMS), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform for manufacturers, recognized as an MES market leader by multiple industry analysts. We're looking for a Senior Product Manager for our Enterprise Platform team to own and evolve the core platform capabilities that determine how Plex connects, secures, models, and moves data across the manufacturing ecosystem. Reporting to the Group Product Manager for Platform, Data & AI, you will define the strategy and roadmap for Plex's data and integration capabilities. You will work closely with engineering, domain product teams, customers, and GTM teams to shape how Plex data is exposed and consumed by humans, systems, and agents. This is a senior product leadership role designed for a PM ready to grow into broader platform leadership responsibility. You will operate at the intersection of technical depth, customer engagement, and stakeholder influence. We are looking for someone who has earned their technical fluency, not just studied it. You have built integrations, designed APIs, implemented enterprise systems, or led API modernization initiatives at some point in your career. You bring that depth into product work to shape strategy and translate complex platform investments into clear customer and business value.
Your Responsibilities:
  • Lead product vision, roadmap, and execution for Plex's Data & Integration platform, including APIs, events, IAM, integrations, and core data services; establish clear metrics for business impact.
  • Own product strategy for enterprise customers, including prebuilt integrations, cross-cloud support, and platform capabilities large manufacturers need at scale.
  • Lead API and integration strategy, including migration to modern REST, event-driven, and MCP-compatible interfaces.
  • Drive platform capabilities that reduce implementation time and lower TCO, including sandbox tenant tooling, pre-built connectors, and implementation agents.
  • Serve as primary product voice with enterprise customers and GTM teams, leading discovery, advisory conversations, executive alignment, and enablement.
  • Collaborate with domain product teams (MES, QMS, ERP) to ensure data, events, and integration definitions support their roadmaps and reduce platform fragmentation.
  • Lead other PMs and Business Analysts; raise the product craft bar across the group.
  • The Essentials – You Will Have:
  • Bachelor's Degree.
  • Legal authorization to work in the U.S.We will not sponsor individuals for employment visas, now or in the future, for this job opening.
  • Ability to travel, including internationally, up to 10% of time.
  • The Preferred – You Might Also Have:
  • Typically requires 8+ years in product management, with experience in a senior or lead PM role at a B2B SaaS company with enterprise customers.
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field; advanced degree a plus.
  • Hands-on background in integration, API development, or solutions architecture; you have built or implemented something, not just managed it.
  • Experience leading API modernization, including migration to REST, event-driven, webhook, or MCP-compatible interfaces.
  • Strong enterprise customer engagement track record (discovery, advisory boards, executive briefings, or pre-sales) with the executive communication skills to translate customer needs into platform strategy.
  • Demonstrated GTM experience, including messaging, launch planning, and enablement for technical platform capabilities.
  • Experience managing or mentoring product managers, with demonstrated investment in others' growth.
  • Experience operating across a platform PM org with multiple concurrent domains, holding areas loosely rather than one area deeply.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
