Understand customers and the product
- Speak with customers, review their drawings and files, and turn feedback into clear product requirements.
- Build a strong understanding of CAD workflows, engineering drawings, manufacturing needs, and where our automation can improve.
Work closely with engineering
- Help engineers understand product behavior, edge cases, and trade-offs.
- Reproduce product issues, explain them clearly, and help the team prepare features for release.
Improve how the team works
- Improve how we handle product planning, customer feedback, QA, documentation, and release reviews.
