About Jody Tyree

I work at the intersection of technology, media, and culture—focused on how systems shape human experience at scale.I’m currently a senior product leader in a highly regulated corporate environment, where I work on future-oriented platforms, personalization, and complex systems. Earlier in my career, I studied film production and the sociology of film, grounding my work in cultural analysis and storytelling.I’m increasingly interested in civic, cultural, and youth-focused initiatives where technology and media can be used as tools for access, preservation, and future-building—particularly in Detroit.My background allows me to translate between technical teams, creative communities, and institutional stakeholders—particularly around media, history, and emerging technology.

Experience

1. Principal Product Manager - Devsecops

   Ford Motor Company

   Jan 2025 — Present · Detroit, MI, US

   I provide strategic product leadership for enterprise developer platforms and systems that enable software development, release, and operations at scale. My work focuses on reducing friction across complex toolchains, improving developer experience, and creating clarity across highly regulated, multi-stakeholder environments.Operating at the intersection of engineering, operations, security, and governance, I define product vision and roadmaps that align long-term technical strategy with business and compliance needs. I partner closely with engineering leaders and executive stakeholders to translate organizational priorities into coherent platforms, workflows, and measurable outcomes.A core focus of my role is systems thinking—understanding how tools, data, and processes interact across the software lifecycle, and designing solutions that improve reliability, transparency, and trust. This includes enabling clearer paths from development to validation and production, improving operational health visibility, and supporting teams with consistent, reliable access to software and information.I lead prioritization and execution across multiple teams and portfolios, balancing innovation with risk management and enterprise constraints. I establish success metrics that reflect adoption, operational performance, and value delivery, enabling leadership to make informed decisions based on real system behavior.In addition to delivery, I serve as a senior product thought partner and mentor, influencing standards, practices, and ways of working across the organization without direct authority. My work supports organizational transformation by helping teams move faster with greater confidence, accountability, and alignment.
