Senior Product Manager

What you'll own
The RFID product roadmap from pilot to full rollout, with clear success metrics: count accuracy, shrink and floor out-of-stocks
Inventory accuracy: RFID cycle counts in stores, EPC-level receiving at DCs, and the rules for when an RFID count updates the SKU-level perpetual inventory
Loss prevention: exit read data, shrink reporting by department, and what asset protection needs from item-level data
Findability: locating items with handhelds, getting backroom stock to the floor, and accurate in-store availability for BOPIS and ship-from-store
The bridge between serialized RFID data (EPC/SGTIN) and SKU-based systems, including GTIN-to-SKU mapping and the data that lands in Google Cloud Platform/BigQuery
Day-to-day work with the RFID platform vendor and cloud partners: priorities, releases and issues
Store and DC adoption: training input, feedback loops and pilot readouts for leadership

Exposure to shrink, exit-read or asset protection data
