Description

Job Description Nordstrom’s Inventory and Supply Chain organization is seeking a Senior Manager of Product Management to lead the strategy, development, and execution of intelligent, data-driven capabilities that power how Nordstrom manages, governs, and optimizes inventory across its end-to-end network. This role sits at the intersection of technology, operations, and business strategy, focusing on real-time visibility, data accuracy, and automated decisioning across supply chain and inventory systems. The ideal candidate is a systems thinker who can connect the dots between business priorities, data insights, and scalable technical solutions — driving measurable impact on efficiency, financial performance, and customer experience. You’ll lead a team of talented Product Managers focused on building enterprise-level capabilities that improve how Nordstrom tracks, analyzes, and acts on its inventory — from vendor to customer. A day in the life… Lead and develop a team of Product Managers responsible for the design, delivery, and optimization of enterprise-wide inventory health and control capabilities — including reconciliation, anomaly detection, and end-to-end visibility across Nordstrom’s supply chain network. Collaborate with peers and leaders across the enterprise — including Finance, Merchandising, Transportation, and Technology — to define product vision, align on priorities, and ensure outcomes support Nordstrom’s enterprise goals. Define and execute a multi-year roadmap for intelligent systems that enhance visibility, control, and accountability across the inventory lifecycle. Translate ambiguous business challenges into actionable product frameworks and measurable KPIs tied to accuracy, automation, and financial performance. Partner with Data Science and Engineering teams to design intelligent systems and data models that enable proactive monitoring, exception detection, and data-driven decision-making. Maintain a strong understanding of emerging technologies and apply them thoughtfully to improve efficiency, reliability, and customer benefit. Monitor and identify customer and operational needs, staying current on industry trends and translating them into product innovation and roadmap adjustments. Review operating practices and procedures, identifying opportunities for automation, process simplification, and performance improvement. Define and monitor key performance indicators for product performance, ensuring continuous improvement through data-driven insight. Hire, coach, and supervise an efficient and high-performing team, fostering a culture of innovation, accountability, and collaboration. Champion the development of enterprise product standards, governance models, and best practices that scale across multiple domains. You own this if you have… 8+ years of product management experience, including 4+ years leading and managing teams in technology, retail, or supply chain environments. Proven success delivering large-scale, data-driven or operational systems that improve accuracy, efficiency, or automation. Deep understanding of inventory, supply chain, or fulfillment systems, with the ability to translate operational complexity into scalable platform solutions. Strong analytical and quantitative skills, using data and metrics to drive decisions and measure success. Technical fluency — comfortable collaborating with Engineering and Data Science to shape solution design and performance standards. Excellent communication and storytelling skills; able to simplify complexity and align executive stakeholders around a shared vision. Demonstrated ability to manage ambiguity, define frameworks, and lead teams through change. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field (MBA or advanced technical degree preferred). Bonus if you… Have experience with intelligent automation, AI/ML-assisted decisioning, or data governance frameworks. Have built or led platform products connecting operational, financial, and analytical systems. Thrive in a fast-paced environment where technology, process, and business priorities intersect — and where your work has visible enterprise impact.
