Company Description

Drafter Inc. is a Khosla Ventures-backed startup building an AI Manufacturing Engineer platform that automates the transition from design to production for critical hardware sectors, including robotics, aerospace, and medical devices.

Job Description

As the first Product Manager at Drafter Inc., you will partner directly with the founders to define the product roadmap and translate complex hardware manufacturing challenges into scalable software solutions. You will own the end-to-end product lifecycle, ensuring high-leverage impact for mechanical engineers building the world’s most critical hardware.

Location

San Francisco, USA

Why this role is remarkable
  • First Product Manager hire:
    You will stop asking for permission and start making the calls, shaping the product culture and operating cadence from the ground up.
  • High-impact mission:
    Your work directly accelerates the production of humanoid robots, lunar rovers, and life‑saving medical devices by automating the hardest parts of manufacturing.
  • Elite backing:
    Join a high‑performing team of 30, supported by world‑class investors like Khosla Ventures, in a role offering significant equity and 99th‑percentile benefits.
What You Will Do
  • Work directly with the CEO and CTO to define, prioritize, and communicate Drafter Inc.’s strategic product roadmap and narrative.
  • Translate ambiguous customer pain points from mechanical engineers into crisp product requirements, specs, and clearly scoped engineering tasks.
  • Drive execution by resolving dependencies, making smart trade‑off decisions, and maintaining momentum across the engineering and design teams.
The ideal candidate
  • Has 3–10+ years of experience in product management or as a startup founder/operator, with a proven track record of shipping technical products.
  • Demonstrates "negative maintenance" ownership—the ability to identify and resolve risks or open questions before they block the team’s execution.
  • Possesses strong technical instincts and the ability to earn trust with world‑class engineers working on computational geometry and AI/ML.
