Understand networking fundamentals, security concepts, and enterprise-level IT standards.

Coordinate with internal IT teams (security, network, DB, applications) as needed.

Data Management & Engineering Workflows

Understand Bill of Materials (BOM) structure, CAD data management, workflows, and search processes.

Support large engineering assemblies, heavy design datasets, and downstream usage in manufacturing & aftermarket.

Engage in discussions with engineering teams to interpret requirements and translate them into Teamcenter solutions.

Challenge business requirements when appropriate, providing technical and functional guidance.

User & Stakeholder Collaboration

Partner with process owners and business teams (Engineering & Manufacturing).

Work closely with design engineers; understand engineering terminology and context.

Communicate clearly, hold independent conversations, and avoid order-taking behavior.

Act as a bridge between IT and Engineering, ensuring PLM stability, scalability, and performance.

Strong analytical thinking and problem-solving capability.

Ability to work independently without step-by-step instructions.

Comfortable handling high-criticality environments where a small issue can impact thousands of users.

Experience working in complex global organizations is a plus.

Nice-to-Have

Background in engineering/manufacturing domains (machines, engines, components).

Experience with enterprise data systems (EDS/EDL) or Snowflake/Databricks.

Prior exposure to client or similar large OEM environments.

Role Characteristics

Not a developer only role; requires both technical depth and system-level understanding.

Not a managerial or senior lead role but requires leadership in technical decision-making.

High visibility position supporting mission-critical engineering systems.

Requires a blend of IT systems knowledge, Teamcenter expertise, and engineering workflow understanding.
