What You’ll Be Part Of 

You will own end-to-end SDV product use cases within the SDV & AI Solutions pillar of HARMAN's Software Products portfolio — the composition layer that defines what HARMAN's customers actually buy. Your role is define how capabilities from across the platform combine into coherent, high-value vehicle lifecycle use cases for specific market segments. You will be close to customers, deeply fluent in the SDV platform's capability landscape, and able to translate both into a roadmap that drives commercial outcomes. 

 How You’ll Make An Impact 

• Own the use-case roadmap for one or more SDV market segments: define which vehicle lifecycle scenarios HARMAN should address, what capabilities are required, and how they compose into a coherent customer offering. 

• Conduct continuous discovery with OEM customers and Tier 1 partners: understand their development and deployment workflows, pain points, and buying criteria. 

• Work with the SDV Infrastructure and SDV Developer Experience pillars to specify capability requirements that arise from use-case needs — and validate that delivered capabilities meet the bar. 

• Define success metrics for each use case: activation, adoption, customer satisfaction, and business impact. 

• Support go-to-market: work with Sales, Pre-Sales, and Product Marketing to build the use-case narrative, demos, and commercial packaging. 

• Contribute to the HARMAN SDV brand positioning by ensuring use-case stories are clear, differentiated, and grounded in real customer value. 

 
What Makes You A Strong Fit 

• 5+ years in product management, ideally for complex B2B platform or software products. 

• Experience defining end-to-end product experiences that depend on multiple underlying capabilities or services. 

• Solid understanding of the automotive software domain: OTA, SDV architecture, vehicle development cycles, or connected vehicle services. 

• Strong customer discovery and research skills — able to run interviews, synthesise findings, and translate them into prioritised product decisions. 

• Comfortable working across organisational boundaries: influencing engineering teams and capability pillars you do not directly control. 

• Excellent communication skills — able to present to customers, write clear specs, and tell compelling product stories. 

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Business, or a related field. 

Bonus Points if You Have  

• Hands-on experience with one or more SDV capability domains: OTA, software distribution, virtualisation, or testing. 

• Prior experience at an automotive OEM, Tier 1 supplier, or automotive software platform company. 

• Exposure to AI-enhanced product features and understanding of how to position AI capabilities to enterprise customers. 

• Experience with platform business models, API ecosystems, or marketplace products.
