About Vizcom
Our mission is to take design from pencil to product.
The distance between a designer's first sketch and a manufacturable object has always been measured in handoffs. Sketch to render. Render to CAD. CAD to CMF spec. Prototype. At every step, intent gets lost. The thing that gets built is rarely the thing that was imagined.
Vizcom is collapsing that distance. We build the tool professional designers actually work in, and teams at Riot, GM, Nike, and Hasbro use it to get from an idea to a real thing faster than the old pipeline ever allowed. Real is the new render.
We've raised $51M and we're scaling fast. We're opening our first dedicated sales presence in APAC and looking for someone to own the region.
The Role

This isn't a role where you're starting from zero. There's real revenue and real relationships to manage on day one across both Japan and Korea. But there's also a ton of whitespace. You'll be shaping how Vizcom sells across APAC, identifying new accounts, navigating different buying cultures, and building out channel partnerships in each market.
