Join the product team at an AI-powered industrial design software startup, building demos, prototypes, and user-facing experiences that make advanced 3D model capabilities valuable to engineers and designers. You will combine product management, CAD expertise, and go-to-market experience to shape product direction and support early commercial growth.
What You'll Do
Build demos, prototypes, and custom workflows that showcase model capabilities for specific prospects, industries, and use cases.
Work directly with manufacturing, mechanical engineering, and product design customers to understand their workflows and bottlenecks.
Assess model outputs against practical CAD standards and advise on features and workflows that matter to industrial users.
Create tools, scripts, and processes for working with CAD data, model outputs, and customer-facing product experiences.
Translate customer feedback into clear input for research and engineering teams, balancing user needs with technical feasibility.
Help shape product priorities and roadmap decisions, and represent the product to technical audiences and prospective customers.
Build go-to-market strategy by defining ideal customer profiles, developing customer pipelines, and closing early commercial deals.
What We're Looking For
Six to ten years of product management experience in manufacturing, industrial software such as CAD, CAE, or PLM, or aerospace and defense.
Direct experience selling to manufacturers or other industrial customers, and leading customer-facing product work.
Experience building or scaling go-to-market strategy, including customer identification, pipeline development, and early deal closing.
A bachelor's degree in computer science or a related STEM field, with the ability to communicate technical concepts in business terms.
Familiarity with 3D CAD tools such as SolidWorks, NX, CATIA, Onshape, or Fusion, and working knowledge of Python and C++.
Experience in a high-growth, venture-backed startup environment and a consistent employment history.
