I came across CADDi while looking for my next role with a clear goal in mind: I wanted to build products where strong product management translates directly into real value for users. When an agent first introduced CADDi to me, I actually turned it down because I found it hard to picture how I would contribute. But as I continued talking with people in the interviews, my impression changed. No matter their role, everyone was consistently focused on craftsmanship and outcomes, and I was drawn to the ambition and perspective they brought. Most of all, I felt the organizational culture was truly faithful to the mission. Before long, I found myself naturally wanting to build great products here.
As an Engineering Manager in the AI for Application group, I work on delivering customer value by making use of the data accumulated at CADDi. Our mission is to understand the limitations of AI correctly, balance that with UI and UX considerations, and translate the best possible functionality into the product. In collaboration with product managers and designers, we are taking on two main challenges: faithfully realizing and validating the UX we aim for, and deploying and delivering proven technologies. We do not treat release as the end goal. What matters is continuously refining what we build so that it keeps fitting customer value even after launch.
