前进部署产品经理
Forward Deployed Product Manager
ABOUT US
Higharc 是一家由风险投资支持的初创公司，正在改变新房设计和建造的方式。加入一个曾为 Autodesk、Electronic Arts、Nike 和 Apple 开发过产品的创始团队。我们已获得超过 1.75 亿美元融资，得到了顶级风险投资公司以及超过 18 家战略投资者的支持：包括建筑、建材制造和分销行业的行业领袖。
Higharc 正在寻找一位亲力亲为的 Forward Deployed 产品经理，将大型住宅开发商的非结构化方案目录转化为结构化、可查询的产品数据。这是在全新 Forward Deployed 团队中的创始角色。
WHAT YOU'LL DO
住宅开发商的方案库是其整个业务背后的产品数据，而在企业级规模下，这些数据几乎完全是非结构化的。方案以图纸集的形式分散在各个半自主的部门中，随着它们的流转被重新命名和重新编号。没有人能确定哪些方案是重复的，某个特定房屋有多少个版本，或者它们之间实际有哪些差异。
Higharc 将这些目录转化为结构化、可查询的方案数据，并在此基础上构建分析功能：可搜索的方案库，支持代理的自然语言搜索，几何相似度评分可以找出以不同名称分叉的方案，结构化的映射可以展示整个库中变化的部分，分类功能使得合并决策成为可能。
你将负责决定现场要开发的内容，与我们的 Forward Deployed 工程师紧密合作，并与住宅开发商合作，将方案转化为可操作的数据。这是一个希望贴近问题源头的角色。Higharc 全程远程办公；你可以坐在美国本土的任何地方，但需要定期前往客户现场和公司活动，占工作时间的 30% 左右。
你将：
- 与总部、区域和部门团队一起进行调研——定位方案资产，建立事实来源，并记录每个部门如何表示其方案以及差异的来源。
- 负责可搜索方案库、分析仪表板和代理支持的搜索的产品定义——一个好的查询是什么样子，一个有用的答案是什么样子，以及“为分析而结构化”到底意味着什么。
- 优化 Higharc 的 Autotranslate AI，以识别、分类并翻译平面图为数据。
- 亲自处理数据：直接查询结构化的方案库，使用我们的内部 API 进行开发，并将可用的功能返回给用户，而不是仅仅停留在理论阶段。

ABOUT US
Higharc is a VC-backed startup that is changing how new homes are designed and built. Join a founding team who’ve shipped products for Autodesk, Electronic Arts, Nike, and Apple. We have raised over $175M with support from top-notch venture capital firms and more than 18 strategic investors: industry leaders in construction, building products manufacturing, and distribution.
Higharc is seeking a hands-on Forward Deployed Product Manager to turn a large production homebuilder's unstructured plan catalog into structured, queryable product data. This is a founding role on a brand-new Forward Deployed team.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
A homebuilder's plan library is the product data behind its entire business, and at enterprise scale that data is almost entirely unstructured. Plans live as drawing sets scattered across semi-autonomous divisions, renamed and re-numbered as they move. Nobody can say with confidence which plans are duplicates, how many versions of a given home exist, or what actually varies between them.
Higharc converts those catalogs into structured, queryable plan data and builds the analysis on top of it: searchable plan libraries with agent-enabled natural-language search, geometric similarity scoring that surfaces plans which have forked under different names, structured mapping of what varies across a library, and classification that makes consolidation decisions possible.
You'll own what gets built in the field, working embedded alongside our Forward Deployed Engineers and in partnership with the homebuilder to turn plans into actionable data. This is a role for someone who wants to be close to where the problem lives. Higharc is fully remote; you can sit anywhere in the continental U.S., with travel to client sites and company events up to 30% of the time.
Expect to:
- Embed with HQ, regional, and division teams to run discovery—locate plan assets, establish source of truth, and document how each division represents its plans and where variation originates.
- Own product definition for the searchable plan library, analytics dashboard, and agent-enabled search—what a good query looks like, what a useful answer looks like, and what "structured for analysis" actually means.
- Tune Higharc's Autotranslate AI to identify, categorize, and translate floorplans into data.
- Work hands-on with the data: query the structured plan library directly, build against our internal APIs, and ship working capability back to users rather than filing a ticket and waiting.
- Define acceptance criteria for delivery milestones—coverage targets, data-field completeness, QA error thresholds—and hold the line on them when schedule pressure argues otherwise.
- Frame and defend quantifiable ROI: redundancy across a catalog, dimensional spread on repeated conditions, consolidation candidates, and the purchasing leverage each one represents.
- Partner with Forward Deployed Engineering, the Technical Lead, QA, Intake Specialists, and Client Strategy, and present progress and tradeoffs to executive stakeholders.
- Capture the playbooks, artifacts, and data patterns that let the forward deployed model carry over to the next engagement.
ABOUT YOU
You're a product manager who is happiest closest to the customer, and you've learned that the fastest path to the right answer is usually to go look. You're comfortable being handed a scope that is 70% specified and a data set nobody has structured before. You can hold a conversation with an architect about how a plan set is drawn in the morning and write the query that tests your hypothesis about it in the afternoon.
You know the difference between a demo and a deliverable, and you're honest with customers about which one they're looking at.
You have:
- 5+ years of product management experience, including significant time in customer-facing or deployed settings—enterprise implementations, solutions engineering, technical consulting, or professional services.
- Hands-on technical fluency: you write SQL, work in notebooks, script against APIs, and interrogate a data set yourself rather than requesting a pull.
- Experience prototyping to validate ideas quickly using tools like Cursor, Replit, or V0.dev http://V0.dev.
- A track record defining structured data models, taxonomies, or classification schemes and getting a business to actually adopt them.
- Strong judgment about data quality—what level of accuracy a decision requires, and what it costs to get there.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, including with executive stakeholders who have limited time and no patience for status without substance.
- Willingness to travel to client sites and company events up to 30% of the time.
A major plus if you also bring:
- Background in residential construction, homebuilding, architecture, or AEC technology—especially fluency with plan sets, elevations, options, and how builders manage plan variation.
- Experience with agent-based or natural-language search over structured data, RAG systems, or LLM-powered analytics.
- Exposure to geometric or spatial data—CAD/BIM, computer vision on drawings, similarity and clustering methods.
- Experience with large, messy, enterprise-scale data migrations or ingestion programs.
- Experience building a function from zero: first hire into a new team, new practice, or new delivery model.
WORKING AT HIGHARC
Remote work and travel: Our company is entirely remote, and has been since we were founded in 2018. Remote work means more time with family, less time commuting, and the flexibility to blend work and life. We value in-person collaboration and asynchronous deep-work time, which is why we schedule regular team meet-ups in our hubs across the US and, depending on the role, prioritize hiring in those hubs. If your role requires frequent travel beyond pre-scheduled team meet ups, we will represent that to the best of our ability as early as possible in the interview process.
Compensation and benefits: Higharc offers competitive salaries with significant equity, in a fast-growing, well-funded company. We provide comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with flexible PTO, and meaningful maternity/paternity leave to all U.S based employees that are full-time. You'll also have access to other big-company benefits such like short and long-term disability plans and a 401K. We also provide a stipend to create the ideal home office and support ongoing L&D.
Please note: we are seeing an uptick of fraudulent recruiting activity claiming to be associated with Higharc. All communication and outreach from our in-house team will come from an @higharc.com email address.
