Solution Architect (Enterprise PLM)

Role Description

We are seeking a highly experienced and technically proficient Enterprise PLM Solution Architect. This role will drive the definition, design, and deployment of advanced PLM capabilities across strategic global programs, working closely with Fortune 500 customers, system integrators, and Siemens product domain experts.

The successful candidate will lead solution architecture for complex, multi-domain Siemens PLM implementations, including:

• MCAD Data Management
• Part and Classification Management
• Multi-domain EBOMs
• Manufacturing BOMs
• End-to-end BOM reconciliation

You will provide expert guidance across cross-functional domains such as:

• Document Control
• Engineering Change Management (ECM)
• Requirements Management
• Configuration Management

Ensure seamless integration with design, manufacturing, and quality processes.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of hands-on experience in PLM solution architecture, with deep technical knowledge of Siemens Teamcenter and related applications.
• Proven delivery of large-scale implementations involving at least 10 of the following functional domains:
  • MCAD Data Management
  • Part/Classification
  • EBOM/MBOM
  • Change Management
  • Requirements
  • Document Control
  • Configuration Management
  • Portfolio
  • Project Management
  • Supplier Collaboration
  • Inventor MCAD
  • Process Planning
  • Service BOMs
  • Quality
• Strong working knowledge of Teamcenter platform configurations, Active Workspace, BOM management frameworks, CAD integrations (NX, SolidWorks, Inventor), and manufacturing data flows.
• Deep understanding of discrete manufacturing industry practices across mechanical, electrical, software, and systems engineering.
• Experience collaborating with global system integrators (e.g., Accenture, Deloitte, Capgemini) on enterprise-level digital transformation programs.
• Exceptional communication, stakeholder engagement, and solution selling skills.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.

Requirements

• Architect and lead the delivery of integrated PLM solutions that encompass:
• MCAD Data Management: Define and implement CAD integrations (e.g., NX, SolidWorks, Inventor), CAD vaulting, check-in/check-out, and data model design for managed assemblies and parts.
• ECAD Data Management: Define and implement integrations for electrical design tools (e.g., Siemens DxDesigner, Cadence Concept, Altium Designer), enabling ECAD vaulting, symbol and component library management, schematic and PCB data control, and synchronization of logical and physical design artifacts with the product structure.
• Part Management: Standardize and structure intelligent part numbering, classification schemas, and approval workflows across engineering and manufacturing domains.
• Multi-domain EBOM Management: Configure authoring environments for mechanical, electrical, software, and simulation data; establish EBOM views and reconciliation frameworks.
• Document Management: Design secure, workflow-enabled technical document management aligned with product lifecycle stages and compliance needs.
• Engineering Change Management: Define end-to-end change control processes including ECR/ECO workflows, impact analysis, and cross-domain coordination.
• Requirements Management: Integrate system-level requirements into the product structure, traceability across BOM and validation artifacts.
• Product Configuration Management: Model product variants, options, features, rules, and 150% BOMs using product configurators and effectivity models.
• Product Portfolio Management: Support capability definition for platform strategies, portfolio structures, and product lifecycle phase-gating.
• End to End BOM Management: Support collaboration between engineering teams using view-based BOM architectures and ECAD-MCAD integration strategies.
• Program Planning and Schedule Management: Align engineering deliverables and milestones with project schedules; configure templates and dashboards for status visibility.
• Supplier Collaboration: Define secure supplier exchange models for CAD, documents, and change items via controlled access portals and workflows.
• Manufacturing BOM & Process Plans: Align EBOM to MBOM using BOM transformation and manufacturing process planning capabilities.
• Service BOM Management: Define and manage as-maintained/service BOMs derived from EBOM/MBOM, supporting serialization, maintenance kits, and configuration control. Enable traceability and change management for field service operations.
• Technical Publications: Establish publication pipelines for generating parts catalogs, service manuals, and work instructions. Ensure alignment between PLM data, CAD content, and document outputs.
• Product Quality: Support closed-loop quality process integration (e.g., FMEA, NCR, CAPA) into product and change management flows.
• ERP Integration: Enable seamless bidirectional transfer of product data-including parts, BOMs, and change records-from Teamcenter to ERP systems as part of the engineering release and change process.
• Lead solution definition workshops, drive fit-gap assessments, and oversee architectural governance for program-wide traceability from business requirements to implementation.
• Provide solution leadership to global delivery teams, mentor consultants and architects, and contribute to reusable templates, best practices, and frameworks within the Siemens Delivery Framework (SDF).
• Support complex stakeholder environments and communicate effectively at all levels, including technical leads and C-suite executives, to ensure alignment and adoption.
