Senior Product Manager - Distribution and Warehousing

Senior Product Manager, Distribution & Warehousing

Coca‑Cola is transforming how our North America Supply Chain operates—using digital products to enable a network that moves with speed, precision, and resilience. Within this transformation, Distribution and Warehousing play a critical role in ensuring product flows reliably from production to customer, across a highly distributed network of company-operated and 3PL-operated facilities.

Our product teams are built on small, empowered squads with clear ownership and accountability, deeply connected to day-to-day operations and responsible for measurable outcomes. As we expand our focus on warehousing, fulfillment, and distribution capabilities, we are building new products and experiences that bring clarity, consistency, and scalability to how work gets done across the network.

If you are energized by solving complex operational problems, working across systems and partners, and shaping products that improve real-world execution at scale, we would love to meet you.

About the Role

The Senior Product Manager, Distribution & Warehousing owns digital products and core capabilities that enable how product is stored, managed, and moved across the distribution network—including warehouse operations, inventory visibility, fulfillment execution, and 3PL collaboration.

This role operates in close partnership with the Distribution & Warehousing Center of Excellence (COE), helping translate enterprise strategy, standards, and operational needs into scalable digital solutions that can be deployed across multiple business units and warehouse environments.

You will define product vision and priorities, guide discovery and delivery with cross-functional teams, and measure success through improvements in service levels, operational efficiency, inventory accuracy, and decision quality.

This role is ideal for a product leader who is comfortable operating across multiple domains, rapidly ramping in complex environments, and bringing structure to spaces that are still being defined—while influencing how product and operational teams work together over time.

Responsibilities

Product Ownership & Strategy

• Own the vision, outcomes, and roadmap for distribution and warehousing products spanning warehouse management, inventory flows, fulfillment execution, and network visibility
• Translate enterprise warehousing strategy, standards, and COE priorities (e.g., warehouse design, WMS logic, automation strategy) into actionable digital product direction
• Define high-value problem spaces tied to service levels, cost efficiency, throughput, and operational predictability
• Balance near-term operational improvements (e.g., visibility, exception handling) with long-term capability building (e.g., automation, decision support systems)
• Make trade-offs across product investments to ensure scalability across different business units, facility types, and 3PL models

Discovery & Delivery

• Lead structured discovery across warehouse operations, fulfillment workflows, and partner ecosystems using research, data analysis, and in-field observation
• Identify root causes across systems, processes, and partner behaviors (e.g., data gaps, WMS logic inconsistencies, 3PL variability)
• Translate insights into roadmaps, requirements, and clear sequencing of product capabilities
• Partner closely with design, engineering, and data teams to deliver solutions that are usable, scalable, and aligned with enterprise standards (e.g., WMS integrations, automation systems)
• Use performance data (e.g., service levels, inventory accuracy, throughput, delay rates) and feedback loops to drive continuous improvement

Partner Experience & Operational Insight

• Build deep understanding of how work gets done across warehouses, distribution centers, and 3PL environments
• Improve visibility into inventory status, order progress, capacity constraints, and operational performance
• Design product experiences that simplify complex workflows such as slotting, picking, allocation, and fulfillment coordination
• Enable more proactive decision-making by surfacing insights, exceptions, and recommended actions
• Explore opportunities to introduce automation, standardization, and intelligent guidance aligned with enterprise warehousing strategy

Collaboration & Influence

• Partner across Supply Planning, Distribution Operations, Transportation, Procurement, IT, Engineering, and COE teams to ensure products reflect real operational needs and enterprise standards
• Work closely with COE leadership on topics such as WMS strategy, automation design, and 3PL integration patterns
• Align on shared priorities, dependencies, and measures of success across business units and product teams
• Influence without authority in a matrixed environment, bringing clarity to complex trade-offs and decisions
• Communicate product direction, priorities, and rationale with clarity and conviction

Key Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience
• 5+ years in product management or related fields (engineering, operations, data, or design)
• Demonstrated experience delivering digital products in supply chain, logistics, warehousing, or distribution environments
• Strong understanding of warehouse operations, fulfillment workflows, or inventory management concepts (e.g., WMS, picking/packing, allocation, slotting)
• Experience working in complex, matrixed environments with multiple stakeholders and partners (including 3PLs)
• Proven ability to operate in ambiguity and build structure in new or evolving problem spaces
• Strong analytical thinking and comfort using data and experimentation in decision-making
• Clear and effective communication across technical and non-technical audiences

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with WMS platforms, warehouse automation systems, or fulfillment technologies
• Familiarity with integration patterns across ERP, OMS, TMS, and warehouse systems
• Experience working with or alongside 3PL providers and external partners
• Experience standing up new products, capabilities, or operational processes from the ground up
• Exposure to automation, AI, or advanced analytics in supply chain environments
