About Fact Base

Behind every manufactured product is a drawing. Behind every drawing is knowledge.

Every machine, vehicle, industrial system, and precision component begins with engineering drawings and technical information. They are the foundation of manufacturing, yet many companies still struggle with disconnected systems, outdated files, and knowledge that isn't accessible when it's needed most.

At Fact Base, we're changing that.

Our cloud platform, ZUMEN, helps manufacturers centralize engineering drawings and technical information, making knowledge easier to find, share, and use across the factory floor.

Since our founding in 2022, Fact Base has become one of Japan's fastest-growing manufacturing software companies. In 2025, we became the first Japanese company to receive investment from Insight Partners, one of the world's leading B2B SaaS investors.

Today, we're bringing that success to manufacturers around the world, helping them modernize one of their most valuable assets: engineering knowledge.

Why Germany?

Germany is home to one of the world's most respected manufacturing industries.

From the Mittelstand to global industrial leaders, German manufacturers are known for engineering excellence, precision, and continuous innovation. Yet many still face the challenge of managing engineering knowledge across increasingly complex operations.

We believe there's an opportunity to change that.

After building a proven business in Japan and expanding across Asia, we're now launching Fact Base in Germany.

This is the beginning of our German business, and we're looking for someone who wants to build it with us.

Why Join Fact Base

This isn't just another Account Executive role.

It's an opportunity to become one of the founding members of our Germany business and help establish how Fact Base grows in one of the world's most important manufacturing markets.

You'll be joining at the very beginning, backed by a proven product, global investment, and a sales framework that's already delivering results.

Along the way, you'll have the opportunity to:

Build Germany from the Ground Up

Help establish Fact Base's commercial presence from the very first customers to a scalable business.

Own the Entire Customer Journey

Take ownership of the full sales cycle, from outbound prospecting to customer onboarding and early adoption.

Work Where Manufacturing Happens

Visit manufacturing companies across Germany, engage with manufacturers and decision-makers, understand their operational challenges, and help them improve the way manufacturing information is managed.

Build Your Leadership Career

As the business grows, this role is designed to evolve from an individual contributor into a Section Manager and, ultimately, a Country Manager. Your growth will be driven by performance and the success of the business, not by predetermined timelines.

So, what does that look like day to day?

What You'll Do

As one of the first commercial team members in Germany, you'll help build Fact Base's business from the ground up while owning the customer journey from the first conversation through early customer success.

You’ll work directly with manufacturers to understand how they operate, identify opportunities to improve engineering information management, and build long-term customer relationships.

Your responsibilities will include:

Building your own pipeline through outbound prospecting and self-generated opportunities.

Maintaining a high level of outbound activity, including cold calling and customer outreach.

Visiting manufacturers across Germany to understand production workflows and operational challenges.

Demonstrating ZUMEN to engineers, plant managers, and business leaders.

Managing the full sales cycle from first meeting through contract execution.

Supporting customers during onboarding and early adoption.

Gathering customer insights and sharing feedback with our Product and Leadership teams.

Helping establish repeatable sales processes that will support the future growth of our Germany business.

To succeed in this role, you'll likely bring the following experience and mindset.
