Description

The Mission US manufacturing is a powerhouse running on legacy systems, fragmented data, and endless spreadsheets. You are here to change that. As a Solutions Expert, you are the engine of CADDi’s US transformation. You aren't just implementing software; you are on the front lines of AI, helping manufacturers modernize their core operations. You will serve as akey bridgebetween factory-floor reality and world-class AI technology, taking complex customer challenges and turning them into functional, high-impact solutions. Key Responsibilities Strategic Discovery & Transformation: Lead deep-dive discovery sessions with client stakeholders (Procurement, Engineering, Quality) to identify operational bottlenecks and architect transformation initiatives. Solution Logic & Design: Design the comprehensive logical architecture for custom applications, defining data transformation rules, complex user workflows, and "North Star" success metrics. 0→1 Framework Creation: Develop repeatable frameworks and accelerators for US manufacturing challenges, turning bespoke customer wins into scalable product features. Deployment & Value Realization: Oversee the full lifecycle from "ambiguous problem" to "production value," partnering with Solutions Engineers to translate technical capabilities into tools that reduce RFQ cycle times and improve spend visibility. Executive Engagement: Facilitate QBRs and value assessments with customer leadership, communicating technical progress in terms of ROI, P&L impact, and expansion opportunities. Cross-Functional Roadmap: Serve as a key liaison to Product Management and Solutions Architects to ensure field-level innovations and "dirty data" challenges are integrated into the core product roadmap. What Your Days Will Look Like Discovery & Mapping: Interviewing Procurement and Engineering teams to document current workflows and data gaps. Solution Configuration: Mapping customer data to CADDi’s platform to build actionable dashboards and tools. On-the-Ground Delivery: Working with technical teams to ensure the solution is feasible, then training users to ensure it sticks. Impact Reporting: Drafting clear updates for customer stakeholders that link tool usage to business outcomes. Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Business Administration (with a manufacturing focus), or a related field. Masters is a plus. Experience: 3-5+ years of experience in manufacturing operations, industrial supply chain, or technical consulting. Experience at a top-tier management consulting firm or within a high-growth technology company is highly preferred. Domain Expertise: Deep understanding of manufacturing operational processes, including Bill of Materials (BOMs), RFQs, and procurement workflows. Technical Proficiency: High level of data and AI literacy; ability to articulate technical concepts (such as RAG or data architecture) to non-technical stakeholders. Problem Solving: Demonstrated ability to structure ambiguity and treat complex operational processes as systems to be optimized. Legal: Must be a U.S. citizen or green card holder (due to ITAR or specific manufacturing compliance requirements). On-Target Earnings (OTE): $150k – $225k Equity: Competitive stock option package. Health & Wellness: 100% company-paid comprehensive health insurance (medical, dental, vision). Retirement: 401(k) retirement plan with company match. Time Off: Substantial Paid Time Off (PTO) and company holidays. Commuter Benefits: Company-sponsored commuter and parking benefits.
