About the role

Neural Concept's Vertical Solutions team turns the most common engineering use cases into streamlined, production-grade workflows powered by leading AI technologies.

As Product Manager or Solution Owner, you will own the product lifecycle for one of our vertical solutions end to end: from discovering customer needs to shipping AI-powered workflows that combine design, simulation, and data science/ML.

You\'ll partner with industry-leading customers to translate real-world engineering problems into a product roadmap, and you\'ll work hands-on with AI-assisted development tools to move from concept to working prototype fast.

This is a pivotal, cross-functionally role: you\'ll work across product, engineering, and customer-facing teams to make sure what you build actually gets adopted and delivers value.

What you will do

  • Own the product roadmap for your vertical solution, from discovery through delivery and iteration.
  • Run customer discovery: lead interviews, validate problem-solution fit, and turn insights into a clear product strategy and backlog.
  • Define and prioritize requirements, write specs, and make the roadmap tradeoffs that keep the team focused on impact.
  • Use AI-based development tools and hands-on prototyping (including scripting) to de-risk ideas quickly and get working solutions in front of customers sooner.
  • Lead and collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of engineers (CAD/CAE/ML) to take solutions from prototype to production-ready.
  • Track adoption and value delivery across customer projects in your vertical, and feed those insights back into the global product roadmap.
  • Align vertical initiatives with overall company strategy.

Who you are

  • Proven product management experience: you\'ve owned a product or product area end to end, from discovery to launch to iteration, ideally in an enterprise or technical B2B context.
  • Hands-on with AI-based development: comfortable using AI coding/prototyping tools (e.g., \"Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar\") and scripting (Python) to build and test ideas yourself rather than only writing specs for others.
  • Strong discovery and customer empathy skills: you can run a great customer interview, synthesize signal from noise, and translate it into a coherent product narrative.
  • Pragmatic, impact-first problem solver: comfortable making tradeoffs, willing to challenge assumptions, and focused on outcomes over process.
  • Comfortable operating cross-functionally with engineering, data science, and customer-facing teams, and able to influence without direct authority.
  • Clear written and verbal communicator, able to align stakeholders across technical and business audiences.

Bonus points for

  • Background or exposure to consumer electronics, automotive, turbomachinery, aerospace, semiconductor manufacturing.
  • Familiarity with engineering software used in CAD/CAE/PLM workflows (e.g., \"SolidWorks, NX, ANSYS Mechanical, Abaqus, Teamcenter, or similar\").
  • Exposure to end-to-end engineering design processes: requirements, concept, modeling and simulation, validation, release.
