Job description

Remote

NCC has led the automotive industry for over 30 years, providing award-winning software, credit and compliance solutions, and cutting-edge data. Our solutions help dealerships streamline operations, improve finance and insurance (F&I) processes, and drive profitability. We are looking for individuals who thrive in a high-growth environment.

We are seeking an experienced Lead Product Manager to own Compliance Audit, an AI-powered automated auditing platform that reviews a complete retail deal jacket in 30 seconds, replacing a manual process and cutting processing time by roughly 95%. The product extracts and maps data across 100+ automotive form types and tests every deal against 200+ programmed compliance rules, catching data anomalies, verifying fair lending markups, flagging missing signatures, and enforcing FTC Used Car Rule disclosures before a deal is submitted to a lender.

You will own an identified $18.5M SOM opportunity across roughly 3,079 dealer rooftops, sitting inside NCC's Credit, Compliance & Fraud pillar alongside Real-Time Compliance AI, Data Hygiene, and Lender Handshake. This is a high-impact role for a product leader who thrives on regulatory nuance, AI-native product delivery, and protecting dealers from compliance exposure without slowing down the deal.

• Own the roadmap for Compliance Audit, including the standalone document-upload path and integration into the broader deal workflow.
• Partner with Legal and Compliance to evaluate new FTC, fair-lending, and disclosure guidance and translate it into product requirements ahead of enforcement.
• Define success metrics for audit turnaround time, rule coverage, and compliance exception rate.
• Own compliance sign-off and audit-readiness for every Compliance Audit release.

What You’ll Do

Product Strategy & Roadmap

• Define success metrics for audit turnaround time, rule coverage, and compliance exception rate.
• Own compliance sign-off and audit-readiness for every Compliance Audit release.

Discovery & Delivery

• Conduct dealer and compliance-officer interviews to surface gaps in the current 200+ rule set and new document types to support.
• Write clear specs and acceptance criteria for the dedicated CCF Engineering Pod.
• Partner with Data Science on the machine learning and document-recognition models that extract and map deal jacket data.
• Own launch readiness, including compliance sign-off, support documentation, and dealer-facing training.

Cross-Functional Leadership
