Product Engineer

Role Overview At M2X Energy, we're rethinking how fuels and chemicals are made—turning stranded natural gas into valuable, low-carbon products that help combat climate change. As the Gas-To-Methanol (GTM) Product Manager, you'll help mature our Gas-to-Methanol system from a low-rate initial production (LRIP) product into a repeatable, manufacturable, field-ready platform that can scale. This role is less focused on traditional commercially-oriented product management, and more focused on product definition, design maturation, manufacturability, quality, and scale-up.

The GTM Product Manager will work at the center of engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, commissioning, and operations to convert lessons from prototypes and deployed systems into a robust product roadmap, controlled design baseline, and scalable production strategy. This role is ideal for someone who can bridge system-level thinking with disciplined execution and who is excited by the challenge of taking industrial hardware from pilot stage to repeatable deployment.

Key Responsibilities

Own the GTM Product Definition: Maintain the product

Requirements

, system architecture boundaries, and design intent for the Gas-to-Methanol system, ensuring alignment across process, mechanical, electrical, controls, and manufacturing teams. Drive Design Maturation: Lead the transition from early manufacturing configurations to controlled product versions by managing requirement traceability, configuration control, quality control, design reviews, and engineering change prioritization. Build for Scale: Partner with engineering and manufacturing to improve design for manufacturability, design for assembly, serviceability, modularization, and standardization across GTM builds.

Translate Field Learning into Product Improvements: Gather input from commissioning, operations, service, and quality teams; identify recurring issues; and convert those insights into prioritized product changes and sustaining engineering work. Own Cross-Functional Prioritization: Create and maintain the GTM product roadmap with emphasis on reliability, throughput, cost reduction, safety, manufacturability, and deployment readiness rather than feature marketing.

, and release readiness for scaled deployment. Strengthen Verification and Validation: Define what “good” looks like for GTM product performance and coordinate validation plans, factory acceptance criteria, commissioning feedback loops, and readiness gates for new revisions. Improve Quality and Change Control: Partner with quality and engineering leaders to implement disciplined documentation, nonconformance feedback, root-cause learning, and corrective actions that improve future builds.

Coordinate Internal Stakeholders: Serve as the integrator across process engineering, mechanical design, controls, manufacturing, supply chain, field operations, and leadership to ensure decisions are made clearly and tradeoffs are explicit. Provide Select Commercial Support: Support business development and project teams on product fit, configuration selection, and technical tradeoffs when needed, while keeping the primary focus on product readiness and execution.

Required Qualifications

S. required, advanced degree or equivalent practical experience preferred. 5+ years of experience in product management, systems engineering, manufacturing engineering, new product introduction, or technical program leadership for industrial equipment, process systems, energy systems, or other complex hardware.

Demonstrated ability to take a product from prototype or pilot stage into a more mature, repeatable, manufacturable release.
