About Basetwo
We’re on a mission to make manufacturing faster, smarter, and more resilient.
Basetwo is a fast growing Toronto-based startup backed by Boeing and some of the top VCs in the Boston, Toronto, and Bay Area ecosystems. Our platform is a cloud-based SaaS that enables manufacturing engineers to rapidly design, build and operationalize “digital twins” in order to optimize their production processes. Using Basetwo, engineers can rapidly simulate critical manufacturing equipment in order to understand behavior, improve KPIs, and mitigate operational failures.
The Role
As the Product Manager, you will be responsible for working directly with the Founding team to build and lead a product driven organization from the ground up. This involves driving Basetwo’s product experience, making it a simple, intuitive, and beautiful platform capable of handling very complex manufacturing workflows. This role involves collaborating closely with our Engineering and leadership teams to define and execute on the Basetwo product roadmap.
