Job description

Dirac is on a mission to reindustrialize The West. American manufacturing is broken—burdened by inefficiency, bureaucracy, and outdated processes. We are pioneering Model-Based Manufacturing, where context-aware production planning informs design in real-time—eliminating the disconnect between engineering and manufacturing. Our platform automates what can be automated and captures tribal knowledge where automation falls short, creating a seamless system for building at scale. We're building the tools modern manufacturers need to move faster and build better, the pillars of a more abundant future.

We are a mission-driven company of world-class engineers and operators with a culture of high trust, high agency, and high autonomy.

Responsibilities

• Own and deliver high-impact technical demos tailored to each customer’s industry, workflow, and pain points.
• Serve as the primary technical contact for prospects and customers across aerospace, defense, automotive, and industrial manufacturing.
• Lead product walkthroughs, deep technical evaluations, and on-site proof-of-concept deployments.
• Explain Dirac’s architecture, capabilities, and ROI clearly to engineers, operators, and executive decision-makers.
• Translate customer requirements into product insights and collaborate closely with engineering.
• Build lightweight integrations, sample workflows, and custom configurations to demonstrate BuildOS in real manufacturing environments.
• Visit customer facilities to understand assembly processes, CAD pipelines, and factory operations.

Requirements

• Exceptional communication and customer-facing presence — especially in live demos and technical explanations.
• Understanding of mechanical assembly, CAD workflows, and the manufacturing ecosystem.
• Strong coding ability — ideally with experience in React, TypeScript, Go, Python, and/or C++.
• Ability to think across software, mechanical design, and production engineering.
• Comfortable working hands-on in factories and fast-moving technical environments.
• High ownership mindset suited for a fast-growth startup.
