Amit Maheshwari
Amit Maheshwari has over 25 years of experience in automotive technology, including serving as head of the global enterprise solutions group at Cox Automotive and head of corporate development and strategy at Dealertrack. While at Dealertrack, Maheshwari is credited as part of the team that coined the term “Digital Retailing,” helping pioneer the opening of F&I systems to third-party developers to enable online car buying. Most recently he served as EVP of Business Development, Strategic Accounts, and M&A at Tekion, where he was responsible for developing strategic digital business opportunities across OEMs, lenders, dealers, and industry solution providers.
Max Steckler
Over the past 25 years, Steckler has been an architect of industry-first solutions—building the first hyper-local advertising platform optimizing across Tier 1 OEMs, Tier 2 and Tier 3 dealership budgets, the first personalization engine for dynamic dealer website content, and the first attribution ecosystem connecting the consumer digital journey to ad performance. That platform earned Google’s “Automotive Innovator of the Year” recognition. He held senior roles at Cobalt, CDK Global, DealerSocket, and Podium before founding PromptPath. Now he’s applying that first-mover instinct to AI conversational intelligence. Steckler’s blend of industry knowledge, product vision, and technical depth consistently produces solutions that move markets.
Jason Barrie
Barrie has more than 20 years of automotive retail technology experience spanning operations, product, and go-to-market leadership. He spent 16 years at Dealertrack and Cox Automotive, where he led the Dealertrack dealer F&I team and held leadership roles across marketing and operations. He later co-founded Carmatic, a technology startup connecting shoppers to dealerships through a fully online concierge buying model. Prior to joining PromptPath, Barrie served as Chief Operating Officer at DAS Technology, leading operations, strategy, product management and market development. Barrie has been recognized as one of AutoRemarketing’s Power 300 leaders.
These automotive technology veterans are ushering in the next wave of customer-facing solutions, pairing people-first conversations with technology that empowers dealerships to create better customer experiences and stronger business outcomes.
