Principal Product Manager - AI for Manufacturing Operations (f/m/d)

We are ONE Siemens

Siemens Digital Industries Operations Software is an integrated suite to engineer, simulate and operate manufacturing. It covers manufacturing engineering (COMOS, Tecnomatix, NX CAM) and production operations (WinCC, SCADA, PCS 7 / neo, Opcenter, Insights Hub). Our software is used to design and produce Formula 1 cars, ships, mobile phones, space vehicles, food and beverages, and pharmaceuticals.

We give manufacturers real-time visibility and control across production and business processes for higher operational efficiency, lower costs and better decisions. Our mission is to make production agile, adaptive and autonomous, and to remove today's productivity limits. We are building the AI-native industrial operations portfolio to apply AI to real things made in the physical world.

As part of Siemens Operations Software, the Technology, Data Fabric & Agentic AI organization provides the technology foundation that enables the next generation of industrial software. Its portfolio includes AI Production Operations & Engineering Systems, Data Fabric, Agentic AI frameworks, OT/IT connectivity platforms, semantic data models that power intelligent and increasingly autonomous operations.

As Principal Product Manager - AI for Manufacturing Operations (f/m/d), you bring AI into real factories: you turn what customers need on the shop floor into the product direction for industrial AI across Siemens Operations Software.

Your Area of Impact

• Define product vision, strategy and roadmap by setting the direction for AI in manufacturing operations across the Operations Software portfolio
• Co-create with lead customers by running plant workshops with sales, regions and forward-deployed engineers and translating open-ended problems into structured product definitions and repeatable architectures
• Build the use-case pipeline by collecting use cases across all manufacturing domains, clustering them, scoring value and feasibility and proposing what to tackle first
• Guide the product teams of Agentic AI, Data Fabric and Connectivity as well as the wider Operations Software ecosystem with a common vision and an overarching product backlog
• Drive delivery by turning priorities into requirements and backlog with R&D and tracking adoption and customer value
• Go to market by tracking competitors and shaping positioning, pricing and packaging with Sales and Marketing

Your Success Is Based On

• 8+ years in product management, customer-facing or field roles for industrial software, with real plant exposure
• Knowing operations software (e.g. MES/MOM, SCADA/HMI, simulation, CAM) from real projects
• A track record of building roadmaps from zero to success, prioritizing use cases and running workshops with plant managers that led to validated requirements or pilots
• Technical credibility to follow architecture and agent-design discussions and to lead product managers and engineers without line authority
• Familiarity with LLMs, agentic frameworks and data platforms, or the drive to get hands-on and learn them quickly
• A startup builder mindset: Deciding with incomplete information and working AI first by running your own work with AI agents, then reviewing, deciding and sharing what works
• Regular travel to customers
• Fluent English skills; German is an advantage
