Product Manager Part-Time, Remote

Transform Labs is seeking a Product Manager to support a complex, long‑term engagement with a national automotive client, as well as potential other projects, depending on need. This role will work closely under the guidance of a Lead Product Manager and will be responsible for assisting with product discovery, requirements definition, and roadmap execution for a custom enterprise platform.

Location requirement:
Candidates must live in Ohio or Michigan, as the role includes occasional on‑site client visits in Michigan.

You will partner closely with a senior Product Manager and internal delivery teams to ensure we are building software that meaningfully improves the client’s business operations.

• Participate in client interviews, workshops, and site visits to learn how the business operates today. Help document current‑state workflows, pain points, and opportunities for improvement.
• Ask clarifying questions to understand why processes exist—not just how they work.
• Assist in identifying downstream teams and systems affected by proposed changes.

• Assist in translating business goals into epics, features, and user stories.
• Draft and maintain user stories, acceptance criteria, and supporting documentation.
• Work closely with Business Analysts and Designers as requirements move into detailed documentation and design.
• Help identify assumptions in requirements and designs that need validation with the client.
• Support review cycles with internal teams and clients to close gaps early and avoid rework.

• Collaborate with engineers to understand technical constraints and feasibility.
• Support sprint readiness by ensuring upcoming work is clearly defined and reviewed.
• Help keep product work aligned with agreed‑upon scope and business priorities.

• Support roadmap planning by tracking upcoming discovery, dependencies, and priorities.
• Assist with preparing materials for bi‑weekly roadmap and prioritization discussions with the client.
• Learn how to think multiple sprints ahead so development teams are never blocked waiting for clarity.

• 2–4 years of experience in product management, business analysis, consulting, or a related role.
• Familiarity with Agile teams and software delivery life cycles.
• Strong curiosity about how businesses operate and how technology can improve them.
• Comfortable asking questions, documenting processes, and synthesizing feedback.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail.
• Willingness to learn enterprise systems and complex workflows.
• Bachelor’s degree required.
• ERP, automotive, or enterprise software experience is a plus, but not required.

• 1099 contract (you supply the equipment).
• PT, 10‑20 hours per week.
• Up to $65 per hour.
• The potential for long‑term, full‑time work.
