PTC is seeking a highly motivated, growth-oriented Mid-Market Expansion Account Executive to drive Arena PLM and QMS adoption within PTC's existing Onshape customer base across the Electronics & High Tech (EHT) market in North America.

This role is focused primarily on identifying, developing, and closing expansion opportunities within established Onshape accounts.
