Role Summary

The Industry Principal (IP) is a highly visible, strategic role responsible for shaping PTC's growth and market strategy within the Electronics & High-Tech vertical. Acting as a trusted advisor to customers and internal stakeholders, the IA leverages deep industry expertise, executive engagement, and market insight to drive early-stage pipeline creation, strategic account expansion, and long-term growth.

This role partners closely with Sales, Product Management, Marketing, Partners, Services, and executive leadership to align PTC's solutions and go-to-market strategy with evolving industry priorities.

The ideal candidate has firsthand experience within the Electronics & High-Tech industry—including semiconductor, industrial electronics, networking, telecommunications, consumer electronics, or high-tech manufacturing—and understands how increasingly complex hardware and software products are developed and brought to market.

The Industry Principal helps define scalable industry go-to-market strategies, influences solution direction, strengthens executive relationships, and positions PTC as a strategic industry leader. Success in this role is measured by the ability to shape executive conversations, create early-stage opportunities, influence strategic account direction, and accelerate long-term pipeline growth—not simply support active sales pursuits.
