Senior Industry Product Advisor/Manager (AEC)

Shape the future of AI-powered growth for the Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) industries! We’re looking for a Senior Industry Product Advisor who combines deep, demonstrable AEC industry expertise with strong product thinking to help define and launch the next generation of capabilities on Unanet’s AI-first platform.

This is a “builder” role, not a traditional backlog management position. You’ll bring firsthand understanding of how AEC firms operate - their workflows, systems, and challenges - and translate that expertise into product direction and AI-enabled solutions. Partnering closely with Product, UX Design, Engineering, and Go-to-Market teams, you’ll own the journey from problem framing to product delivery, rapidly turning real-world industry needs into market-ready capabilities that accelerate growth, drive adoption, and strengthen Unanet’s leadership in the AEC market.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and drive a forward-looking roadmap for AI-first AEC capabilities for Unanet’s GrowthStudio product, grounded in deep understanding of how AEC firms operate
• Serve as an AEC industry domain expert within our Product organization, bringing firsthand industry perspective to product strategy, discovery, design, and prioritization
• Lead product discovery, framing, and prioritization for customer-facing AI-enabled workflows and experiences
• Translate real-world AEC workflows, customer needs, and market insight into actionable product requirements, prototypes, and release plans
• Leverage internal AI tooling across the full product lifecycle, from discovery and strategy through prototyping, PRD creation, and refinement
• Partner with UX and Engineering to shape agentic workflows, move quickly from concept to validated prototype, and ensure we are solving the right problems for AEC customers
• Define success metrics, evaluation approaches, and feedback loops for LLM- and agent-driven experiences, including human-in-the-loop validation
• Engage with customers and industry stakeholders to validate problems, challenge assumptions, identify emerging needs, and continuously refine product direction
• Communicate effectively across technical and non-technical stakeholders, including Engineering on requirements and Marketing on Go-to-Market strategy
• Track competitive and market developments in AEC and use that insight to inform our roadmap, positioning, and moat-building decisions
• Help evolve how Product works in an AI-first organization by modeling strong use of AI in day-to-day product management practices

Who You Are

• Deep, demonstrable AEC industry expertise, developed through substantial experience working within or supporting architecture, engineering, and/or construction organizations and understanding how these firms operate, win work, deliver projects, and grow
• Able to translate complex AEC workflows and customer problems into product opportunities, requirements, prototypes, and scalable software capabilities
• Experience with AI-powered products or technologies, including LLMs, agentic workflows, AI-assisted experiences, or adjacent technologies, with a strong point of view on their practical application within AEC
• Strong analytical abilities and product judgment, with ability to distinguish customer requests from underlying problems, evaluate data, identify risks, and prioritize opportunities
• Ability to collaborate effectively across Product, Engineering, UX, Marketing, and customer-facing teams, communicating complex industry and technical concepts to varied audiences
• Comfortable working with technical architecture, data models, information retrieval systems, and product evaluation frameworks
• Strong written and verbal communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills
• Familiarity with responsible AI principles, including fairness, transparency, and accountability
• Self-directed, collaborative, and execution-oriented, with a track record of delivering high-quality solutions
• Willingness and ability to travel to customer and non-customer sites (~15%)

Your Differentiators 

• Proven success translating firsthand AEC industry knowledge into software solutions, digital transformation initiatives, or shipped product capabilities
• Hands-on experience with agentic workflows, prompt engineering, LLM orchestration, and AI-assisted product development using tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, Glean, Replit, and MCP-enabled workflows
• Experience with ERP, CRM, proposal management, project management, or other systems of record used within AEC firms
• Strong understanding of AEC proposal development and pursuit processes, project-based operations, and the systems and data that support how
