About SOURCIX

SOURCIX is building the intelligence layer for manufacturing procurement .

We help engineering and supply chain teams make faster, more accurate sourcing decisions by turning technical drawings, BOMs, and supplier data into actionable insights using domain-specific AI.

Our platform connects design, engineering, and sourcing through a seamless, automated workflow - from drawing verification and BOM extraction to AI-driven cost estimation and vendor matching. The result: less manual work, lower costs, and faster time to market .

SOURCIX is already used by leading hardware companies and suppliers to validate mechanical drawings, extract structured manufacturing data, estimate pricing, and match with the right vendors - all powered by AI that actually understands real manufacturing data , not generic documents.

After successfully closing our seed round, we’re entering a major scaling phase and building the technical foundation for rapid growth and global expansion.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a VP R&D to lead SOURCIX’s engineering organization through its next stage of growth. This is a hands-on senior leadership role. You’ll work directly with the founders to define the technical vision , engineering culture , and execution strategy across multiple product lines.

You’ll own both:

• Core product engineering (Smart Tools, Marketplace, Platform APIs)
• AI / ML infrastructure (computer vision, geometry understanding, LLM-based reasoning)

This is a rare opportunity to architect the R&D organization and technology stack of a company reshaping a massive, underserved industrial market.

Key Responsibilities

What We’re Looking For

Bonus points if you have experience with:

• Computer vision or geometry processing
• PDF / CAD / drawing parsing
• Manufacturing, procurement, or industrial platforms

You Can Demonstrate

• Real examples of scaling teams, systems, and engineering processes.
• A thoughtful approach to hiring, team structure, and technical decision-making.
• The ability to balance deep engineering judgment with business pragmatism.
• A track record of building reliable, elegant, data-driven products.

Why SOURCIX

• Transform a global industry: Mechanical procurement is slow, manual, and opaque. We’re changing that.
• Hard AI problems: From understanding 2D drawings to supplier matching based on geometry and tolerances.
• True ownership: You’ll define the engineering culture, architecture, and standards from the ground up.
• Real impact: Your work will directly shape how manufacturers, engineers, and suppliers collaborate worldwide.
