XPLM Solution Inc, a subsidiary of Aras Corp, is looking to strategically own and develop its core portfolio of mechanical CAD connectors and visualization tools, aligning the product roadmap with the Aras Innovator ecosystem and connecting data and processes across system boundaries.
Requirements
- Deep knowledge of PLM (Aras Innovator preferred) and the "inner workings" of Mechanical CAD software (APIs, assembly structures, metadata).
- Technical 3D Knowledge: Understanding of 3D geometry, tessellation, and the "Digital Twin" concept.
Responsibilities
- Define how mechanical data (from SolidWorks, NX, CATIA, Creo) is mapped, transformed, and synchronized within Aras.
- Own the roadmap for 3D viewable generation (JT, WebGL, etc.) and Digital Mock-Up (DMU) capabilities to enable cross-enterprise collaboration.
- Direct the logic for how complex 3D assembly structures are converted into actionable PLM Bills of Materials (BOMs).
- Oversee the user experience for "Check-in/Check-out" and Work-in-Progress (WIP) data handling to maximize designer productivity.
- Partner with leadership to translate business goals into a multi-year roadmap and align closely with Aras on platform updates.
- Establish standardized PM frameworks (Agile, PRDs, prioritization) to ensure consistent delivery across all XPLM integration products.
- Recruit, mentor, and lead a high-performing team of Product Managers (focused on ECAD, ERP, and Platform).
Other
- 8+ years of experience in Product Management for B2B enterprise software, with at least 3 years in a leadership/lead role managing other PMs.
- Leadership: Proven ability to coach PMs through technical trade-offs and manage complex stakeholder relationships.
- Act as a strategic partner to leadership.
- This is a "Player-Coach" role: you will personally drive the strategy for our Mechanical/3D products while building, managing, and mentoring a team of Product Managers.
