About factorymaker

factorymaker is building AI design agents for the industrial world. We turn complex factory and infrastructure planning into intelligent, data-driven decision systems. We connect building, process, and site data in an intelligent decision space that supports companies in solving complex operational and strategic questions in a data-driven way. Our technology automates analysis, planning, and optimization processes and turns infrastructure into an active performance lever — instead of a static cost factor. In this way, we help industrial companies use space more efficiently, improve workflows, and make well-informed investment decisions. We are a Vienna-based deep-tech company building the next generation of AI-powered decision and optimization systems for industrial organizations.

As a Product Manager with a focus on production planning and production operations optimization, you take on the content-related and strategic responsibility for this central product area. You bring deep domain knowledge from industrial production environments and understand real planning and optimization challenges.

You think strategically, act analytically, and bring industrial reality into our product decisions.

• Building domain knowledge within the company and ensuring professional excellence
• Co-shaping the long-term product strategy
• Support in presales and strategic customer discussions

Requirements (Must-Haves)

• Several years of experience in production planning, production optimization, or industrial operations organization
• Experience working with complex production systems (e.g., layout planning, material flow, capacity planning, lean, operations excellence, digital twins)
• Strategic product thinking with clear prioritization capability

• Ability to translate industrial problem statements into structured product requirements

• Very good German and English skills

What we offer

• Direct collaboration with the founders and deep insights into building and scaling a growing deep-tech startup
• High level of personal responsibility and real influence on strategy, market presence, and company success
• The opportunity to actively shape a new technology category in the industrial environment
• Work in an international, interdisciplinary team with short decision-making paths and an open communication culture
• International enterprise customers and demanding industrial projects
• Dynamic, innovation-driven environment with a focus on AI, optimization, and design technologies
