In this role, you'll work hand-in-hand with a team of highly skilled Consulting Engineers to help our customers solve complex technical challenges, guide product integration, and ensure our tools deliver maximum value.

You'll lead the team responsible for delivering exceptional customer experiences, building trusted partner relationships, and helping customers achieve long-term success. You will take a hands-on approach, bringing strong technical depth in 3D and meaningful pre-sales exposure. This role combines leadership, collaboration, and technical expertise to ensure customer satisfaction, growth, and long-lasting relationships.

This is a remote role based in the U.S, managing team members in France, U.S, Canada, and Japan.

What You'll Do:
  • Inspire and Lead: Manage, coach and develop a high-performing, global consultancy team
  • Build Trusted Relationships: Foster strong connections with partners, peers, and cross-functional teams
  • Strategic Impact: Collaborate with senior management to define and achieve business goals
  • Drive Customer Success: Understand customer needs, guide technical solutions, and ensure a great experience from first conversation to long-term adoption
  • Shape the Products: Turn customer insights into feedback that helps guide product development and roadmaps
  • Bring Solutions to Life: Present and demonstrate Tech Soft 3D software in ways that clearly connect technical capabilities to customer value
  • Partner with Sales and Marketing: Create compelling content for sales proposals and contribute to engaging marketing materials
  • Continually Pursue Excellence: Stay current on technology and market changes that may affect or enhance our products
  • Enhance How the Team Works: Partner with the Sr. Director of Partner Development to refine tools, processes and workflows so the team can operate efficiently and sustainably
  • Champion company culture: Build positive relationships, stay agile through change, and help create a collaborative high-performing team environment


What We're Looking For:
  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, computing, product design, physics, or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience
  • 10+ years' experience working in the Automotive, Aerospace, or Defense sectors, either as an end-user or within the CAD/PLM/PDM software ecosystem
  • Previous people management experience
  • Solid understanding of 3D geometry and CAD
  • A track record of success in pre-sales and technical support

  • Ability to travel occasionally


Bonus Points If You Have:
  • Familiarity with project management methodologies and tools
  • Experience working with an international team


Reasons to Not Apply:
We believe in matching great talent with the right roles. You might want to pass on this opportunity if:
  • You prefer a slow-paced environment with little change
  • You want rigid job boundaries and minimal cross-team collaboration
  • You're uncomfortable working across global time zones or shifting priorities
  • You prefer close, highly structured oversight rather than autonomous, results-driven work
  • You are not interested in contributing to a collaborative, people-first team culture


Benefits, Perks and Life at Tech Soft 3D:

Our employees enjoy an extraordinary benefits package, including robust medical, dental and vision plans for employees, their spouses/domestic partners, and dependents, life insurance coverage, retirement savings, bonus potential, exceptional paid time off, holidays, 12 weeks' paid parental leave and paid sabbaticals every few years.

As a "Techsoftian", you'll also enjoy a fun, relaxed and inclusive culture; outstanding leadership; continuous learning and growth opportunities; flexible daily schedules; charitable donation matching; home office reimbursement; a monthly internet allowance; and an inclusive employee recognition program where winners get an all-expenses-paid trip to somewhere in the world! If you're looking to be part of an authentic workplace where you can truly be yourself, this role may be for you!

The salary for this role is based on a combination of factors, including experience, education, and any special skills or expertise you bring. The U.S. pay range is $160k - $165k/year.
