Enterprise Account Executive

About Oden:

Manufacturing is undergoing its fourth industrial revolution, with factory operations increasingly driven by real-time applications that combine process and context data with advanced ML and AI algorithms. This is unlocking a staggering opportunity to improve the efficiency and productivity of existing manufacturing processes. 

As a Manufacturing AI company, Oden is at the forefront of this revolution. We combine large-scale data processing architectures and advanced AI and ML algorithms within the Oden platform so manufacturing operations teams can continuously monitor, analyze, and optimize their production, across a diverse set of processes and conditions. Our goal is to maximize efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness in the manufacturing domain - to help True Makers Make Things Better!

Why We Do It:

We like to enable True Makers - those who make things - to make more, to waste less, to serve their customers, and to thrive in a competitive world. Help enough makers, and the world can give us all the abundance we want for less cost and environmental impact. 

You:

• Care about the purpose of the product and company

• Are never satisfied with the way things are, but excited about the way things could be

• Tinker. You embrace data and different technologies and want to see how they can work together

• Live by transparent and scientific thinking. You put in the work to find the best ideas with those around you

• Empathize with customer needs and enjoy novel ways of posing and solving their problems

• Are happy to put on steel toe boots and hit the factory floor to work with the production manager

About Oden:

We are in a new industrial revolution. Access to manufacturing analytics has transformed from a luxury to a necessity for running a thriving factory. Labor shortages, increased material costs, fragile supply chains, rising global demand, and more advanced product designs mean it’s more important than ever for manufacturers to be agile and efficient. Leading manufacturers partner with Oden Technologies to leverage data in their day-to-day operations, enabling them to excel in this highly competitive and ever-evolving landscape.

One of the driving forces behind this change is the challenge of hiring and retaining front-line staff, as the industry often faces annual turnover of over 70%. Knowledge transfer and training are impeded by fragmented and siloed manufacturing data. We are revolutionizing the way plant-floor staff access and use data, helping workers become domain experts and high performers, faster.

Our manufacturing analytics solution aggregates and translates billions of data points generated in production into actionable intelligence for engineering and operations teams. With Oden, they gain unprecedented insights that drive a rapid and impactful decision-making process. No longer do they need to rely on IT, analysts, or data scientists—our solution empowers front-line teams to make independent, data-driven decisions. This democratizes decision-making, fosters a better working environment for front-line staff, and saves millions of dollars worth of wasted material, energy, and time per factory every year

Join a team solving real, impactful, and challenging problems. Let's shape a future where manufacturers and their front-line teams are equipped with the tools and knowledge to thrive in this new era of industry.
