For a decade, Edmunds, an online resource for automotive inventory and information, has been struggling to consolidate its data infrastructure. Now, with the infrastructure side of its data house in order, the California-based company is envisioning a bold new future with AI and machine learning (ML) at its core.
“We’ve solved most of the consolidation challenges,” says Greg Rokita, assistant VP of technology at Edmunds. “Now, how do we stay ahead in this AI landscape? What foundation frameworks should we develop to make our product teams more productive and gain on our competitors?”
Rokita has been with Edmunds for more than 18 years, starting as executive director of technology in 2005. His role now encompasses responsibility for data engineering, analytics development, and the vehicle inventory and statistics & pricing teams.
