About 4M Analytics

4M Analytics' unique technology provides a subsurface utility map with a complete, accurate, and up-to-date subsurface-infrastructure database in the US. Backed by Insight.

About the role

Over the past several years, 4M built significant business around Departments of Transportation (DOTs) — we now serve 10-12 DOT customers, and we did it deliberately: hire someone close to the customer, learn the workflow cold, and build the product the market actually needed. We're now applying that same intentional playbook to a new frontier: the Utility Owners segment.

What they're looking for

  • Relevant educational background (BA/BS/BE/MBA). This could be in business, computer science, or even architecture/industrial engineering
  • 7+ years of experience spanning reputed management consulting and/or product management at a B2B SaaS, data, or AI-native company
  • Comfortable operating in a 0-to-1, forward-deployed capacity — shaping a brand-new product and market directly with executives and customers, without an existing playbook to lean on
  • Sharp, credible communicator who translates cleanly between customer needs and engineering, and who's comfortable working shoulder-to-shoulder with the CEO and Chief Growth Officer as well as in front of customers
  • Based in or open to relocating to Austin, TX
More about this role

The 4M story is likely one you haven't heard before: we're on a mission to unlock access to the world below us — to do for the world below ground what Google Maps did for the world above. By mapping subsurface infrastructure and making reliable, real-time utility data accessible to the construction and infrastructure industry, we're transforming a traditional, high-stakes industry.

We're a growing startup with 120 employees, based in Tel Aviv, Israel and Austin, Texas.

Joining the Utility Owners Business Unit means you are at the forefront of a mission-critical expansion. You will have a direct impact on how major utilities manage their subsurface risk, preventing catastrophic damage and saving lives. This role offers a unique career trajectory: as a foundational hire, you have the opportunity to grow into owning broader product areas, leading new segments, or shaping our entire AI-product strategy as the business scales.
