About Neural Concept
Engineering is at an inflection point. The teams defining the next generation of aircraft, electric vehicles, and consumer products are not just designing faster — they are designing fundamentally differently, with AI embedded at the core of their workflows.
Neural Concept builds the Engineering AI platform that makes this possible. We help the world's leading engineering teams accelerate development, improve product outcomes, and scale engineering capacity — turning months of simulation into days, and engineering intuition into data-driven insight.
We work with elite engineering teams in Automotive, Aerospace, High-Tech and Electronics, and advanced manufacturing, where the stakes are high, the complexity is rising, and the pressure to innovate has never been greater. We are changing how engineers work. Come build that future with us.
The role

You will own the full enterprise sales cycle, from identifying prospects, to advancing opportunities, closing and expanding strategic customers. Working together with a cross-functional team, you will lead complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles involving engineering teams, IT, procurement and senior executives.
What you will do
Build and execute a territory and account strategy for selected engineering-driven companies.

Lead commercial proposals, negotiations and procurement processes.
Coordinate Solution Engineering, Product, Forward Deployed Engineers and leadership around strategic opportunities.
Maintain a healthy pipeline, accurate forecasts and disciplined opportunity management.
Represent Neural Concept at customer meetings, executive briefings and industry events.

You are comfortable creating opportunities in an emerging market, helping customers move from technical interest and pilot projects to enterprise adoption.
