Summary Generated by Built In

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 AEC firms win and deliver work
Our Values
  • We are a Team. Employees, customers, and partners working together.
  • We are Customer-Focused. Customers are the heart of everything we do.
  • We are Driven. Seeking exceptional outcomes.
  • We Own our Success. Every employee has a stake in our company.
  • We do the right thing and have fun in the process. 

The salary range for this opportunity is $120,000 - $150,000 per year. You will be eligible for employee equity as well as discretionary bonus compensation, subject to plans that may be in effect from time to time. You will further be eligible to participate in Unanet's employee benefits plans and programs. For more details on Unanet's benefits offerings, please visit https://unanet.com/employee-benefits.
